1/33 scale A-T6 Texan
Been working on this Harvard/Texan model for some time now.
Some of you may have followed the early work (on my cutandfold forum). Anyway, since I am going ahead with the Texan project, I thought I might copy the info over here as well. [Copied from cutandfold forum] Not being any sort of expert on the Texan, I am hoping to learn quickly and maybe hear from those who do have an interest in this bird. Since I already have a basic template* completed as a result of my redesign of Ken Uhrig's Harvard kit, I am going to use it as the basis for some Texan models in 1/33 scale. First...I'm off to find some reference material...although I think I have already decided on the first model. Wikipedia here I come! lol By coincidence the first image I see is a nice shot of two aluminum Texans in flight! I have had this image for sometime in my own files, and I really like the clean look to the aircraft. Plus I wanted to start off with a mostly bare metal aircraft...so this is it. Other suggestions for Texans are welcome, but keep in mind I am not going to get into any major variations on the Texan version. *for more information on the Harvard model template and my redesign, please look here: Harvard Mk IV 1/33 scale redesign by Dave Winfield *for more info about Ken Uhrig designs, look here: Ken Uhrig Aircraft models ... [Posted June13] Still working on the basic Texan... right now, trying to get the basic pattern finished and all the pages for repaints. Making up some new Instruction pages. Decided to have a little fun with details like panel rivets. Hopefully get the Wings done today. ... [Posted June13] and...a Wing! (sans markings of course).
