A classic old and hard kit from Łukasz... I can't miss it!

Patryk S.
Following! Is this build an indication and warning of an incoming Czapla build?😜 Greetings!

Maciej Bellos
Oh, gotta see this one!

Moreno Baruffini
Oh wow! Following!

Mr D
Nice 👍👍

Nicolas
Count me in as well.

Łukasz Gliński
Welcome everyone, glad to have you on board.
@Patryk: LOL, it is waiting in the stash indeed, but I'd like to train some tricks on Łoś and RWDs 6&8 first 😄

Insert "I was there 3000 years ago" meme 😄 I got this as a souvenir from our family trip to Poland back in the 80's and finished it in one afternoon sitting straight after our return. I do not doubt you are going to make much better PZL.37 replica than I did back then...

Alec K
Ahh, I have this thing somewhere, in glorious blue. Watching, of course.

Ben M
👀 just what I like

Mr D
Nice to do a vintage kit... takes you back.
I remember doing the Matchbox Electric lightning ⚡ with my dad as a boy..
Good luck with everything 👍👍

Robert Podkoński
Somehow I missed that... taking a seat, of course!

Was going to do the Battle of Britain version of this kit but I'm temped to have a go at some winter white wash and the wasp is cooler than the shark mouth 😎

I also have Bf-110 from the Airfix, I will build an Italian night fighter. The sprues are the same, so I'm watching!

Sy Bar
Cheers guys.
I'm have a go at riveting, but going freehand as at this scale using tape was taking so long. I also not sure how much they will stand out on finish kit, but with the wonky line in parts they will probably bee seen from mars 🤣

Mark Sherwood
Looking good so far, like the underside. 🥸👍

Sy Bar
Cheers #Mark

Skyhiker
Sy, how was the fit on this kit?

Guy Rump
Looking good, following. 👍

Sy Bar
Cheers #Guy 👍
#Skyhiker I found the fit to be good, I had a very slight gap at the front but think that was as much to do with me and the fitting of the pit (not the clearest instructions there). Every thing else was fine and the canopy was a good fit, I did change order of build slightly with the tail section I glued the rear piece to the body first then added the tail (after I'd added the stabilisers/rudders) this made more sense than the instructions 😁

Sy Bar
Only issue I have with this kit are the decals. While they look great and are in perfect register, they have a large amount of film edging and are both thick and delicate at the same time🤪
Having a hard time getting them to settle into the panel lines etc. I usually just need to use micro sol but even ultimate extra strong is not have much effect. Going to have to wait till I get some Tamiya fixer, strong and extra strong hopefully one of these will help 🤞

Mr D
You should be ok with the medium one with Airfix decals,
I like a mix of Water in with the markfix...seems to keep the decal floating longer.
I did the teeth on my p40 this way.
If they started getting bit sicky...l would add bit more water....keep it floating.
Wouldn't like to do shark teeth with HB decals 🤔🤣.... The lightning ⚡ strike on my mig-15 just fell apart with hardly any working.
Good luck with it ..look forward to seeing 😃👍👍

Dave Flitton
Looking good!

Cheers for advice #Mr D. Afraid this set of decals were unaffected by all solutions but the mark fit super strong did have some effect. To make head way I found I needed to add the solution then after a few seconds apply hot air from a hairdryer to 'shrink wrap' the decal. These have to be the worst decals I've come across..
I recommend anyone doing this kit to source a set of decals rather than use those provided, they are not for beginners that's for sure. I hope the carrier film will disappear under a gloss coat but I didn't want to risk it so I've only applied the larger decals the smaller ones while add great detail if cartograf here they are 90% carrier film.

Skyhiker
Why don't you just cut the carrier film away with a knife before applying them?

Mr D
Hi Sy
That's ok .... I think the result will be fine after a clear coat, you come out of it without wrinkles, bubbles or tear's so it's a win, very smart n be sorted under a clear.👌👍👍

Sy Bar
Cheers #Mr D
#Skyhiker that's idea but life's too short for the amount there is, the size of the decal that's left will look like small black dots everywhere (especially the fuselage rib numbers 🤪); would be ok in 48 but too much in 72. Also I'm probably going to much it all up when I apply the winter white wash 😆

Rui S
That's Looking Great 👍

Great job! I am especially impressed with the fact, you've managed to install the engine and its cover... I know this is not an easy task with respect to this kit ^_^
