FAB Ms 406
« on: March 21, 2017, 01:52:26 AM »
Just some light relief from the hard work on the Bristol Bergen...

This is my Fuerza Aerea Boliviana M.S. 406.  This is the Hobby Boss Easy Assembly kit in 1/72, built almost entirely OOB (I did give it a DF loop in the normal upper radio antenna position, moving the radio antenna aft - those were the only mods other than markings).  The decals were from Blue Rider Gran Chaco War sheet #2. This represents an M.S. 406 from the First Grupo (hence the Maltese cross insignia on the starboard side). 

Hope you like it!

What a little beauty, the markings are very smart and the physical mods are spot on, altogether very nice indeed.

If it's great, I did it. If it's naff, I found it.
