after a long time, i finally got around to finishing some models, starting with this one.
this is a Hasegawa 1/144 NAMC YS11, with DIY decals made for the Fuerza Aerea San Theodoros.
i replaced the old 4-blade props with a pair of more modern 3-Blade ones from a Minicraft C-130A.








the second one, is a Douglas C-47D Skytrain, the redecesser of the YS-11 in FAST service.
the kit is the Roden 1/144 AC-47D Gunship, built as a standard transport, decals are also DIY.






on the bench:

-all kinds of things.

Looking good ! The camo looks great on both of them. Not sure what the old 4 bladed props look like...I'll have to go google that.
CANADA KICKS arse !!!!

Long Live the Commonwealth !!!
Vive les Canadiens !

They looked like the ones on a Viscount, because that's effectively what they were.  ;D
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)
