A 1/32 scale model built from a kit that’s already more than a decade old. It was great fun to assemble, and I really enjoyed enhancing it both from scratch and with added details in photo-etch, resin, and 3D-printed parts.
The painting process was quite a challenge, combining traditional paintwork with decals in some areas of the camouflage. Yellow is not the easiest color to handle, but I’m very pleased with the final result. The crosses were painted using masks, which gives the model a more realistic finish.
I chose this particular scheme to step away from the Baron’s typical red and do something different. Even so, his famous red triplane remains on my list of future projects — a small tribute I’d love to create.
Hope you like my version of this aircraft.
