"KW P-39 superior to Halinski version"
Regarding how the KW P-39 model compares to the Halinski P-39, Slawomir Wojcik of European Modellservice clearly implies that the KW model is both better and definitely more rich in detail than the Halinski version:

Thanks, Leif! Any idea on how to order from Draf Model. I went to their site, but Google could not handle the polish instructions.
I would love to have their JU-87!

I say better in the sense of detail and options. I looked over my copy of Halinski's P-39 the other day, and noticed that the panel lines and rivets were barely noticeably due to the dark green used. In comparison to the KW model, the rivets/panel lines were noticeable, but not enough to stick out like a sore thumb. The cockpit of the KW model looks a bit more detailed, but I really can't put my finger on that area. If the KW model has a fault, then from reading others experience, it would be the fit of the cockpit. As for Halinski, I believe modelperry built Halinski's P-39 and noted that the wing skins didn't match properly. The KW P-39 also has the individual flap options in the wings, which I think makes the model look "mean". I'm merely speaking by observance, as I haven't built any of the P-39's from Halinski or KW. Personal preference perhaps? |

Dealing with Draf
Charles, as for dealing with Draf models, I can see the problem - there are no instructions but in Polish. Two suggestions:
1) Contact Draf models by way of their contact form. 2) Contact Slawomir Wojcik (Modellservice) by email: post-officeWojcik(at)t-online.de Compare the prices they quote for shipping when you get their replies (don't rely on Slawomir's webshop, it calculates shipping costs higher than what Slawomir actually will charge). My recommendation - go with Slawomir if at all possible. His prices, service, and inside knowledge of the Polish card modeling scene are hard to beat. I know some people from this site have dealt with him, and that they would second that, but I also understand there's an extra problem in that Slawomir requires payment by transference to his bank account which, as I understand it, means a fairly substantial extra cost from the US. From Europe that extra cost is reasonably small. Leif Last edited by Leif Ohlsson; 08-11-2011 at 12:56 PM. |

That's the kind of build that makes even a seasoned paper modeler echo the timeless cry of "THAT'S PAPER???"
