Interesting!
Incidentally, as you keep producing some very interesting subjects I've just had a look at your stash - wow fantastic range of kits, I'm green with envy. 😄

Alex K
I'm in, of course (agreeing with everything Gorby said...)

Robert Podkoński
Thank you, Mates 🙂

J35J
Always in on your builds😀

Robert Podkoński
It is good to have you aboard, J35J. Feel warmly welcomed!

AJMM
Really interested to see how this builds up. It's looking great so far!

Bruce Huxtable
Another space-saver! Wondering what interesting livery will bring this little gem to life? 🙂

Robert Podkoński
Feel warmly welcomed AJMM and Bruce! @Bruce - I like most the most 'exotic' livery - the Manchurian one. @AJMM - I am a bit concerned about the main undercarriage legs, they are very thin.

Łukasz Gliński
Can't miss it, it's on my wishlist too (but in 72nd) 👍

Bruce Huxtable
Hmmm....perhaps display her in flight, Robert?

Ben M
👀

Robert Podkoński
Welcome, Mates! @Bruce - I'm considering this option in fact 😉

Spanjaard
i am in, of course 🙂

Neil
Me too 👀

Robert Podkoński
Feel warmly welcomed, Spanjaard and Neil 🙂 I am back from vacations, so there will be next updates soon 😉

Marko
Well, I'd like to look at that. Worthwhile role model, that will be a nice model👍

Robert Podkoński
It's good to have you aboard, Marko 🙂

Guy Rump
Looking good so far, definitely following. 👍

Robert Podkoński
Thanks, Guy! Feel warmly welcomed 🙂

Zbynek Honzik
Taking a seat, Robert!
What a tiny little plane it will be... Fingers crossed and looking forward to the result! 👍

Robert Podkoński
Welcome, Zbynek 🙂 Tiny it is, indeed... 😉

Robin (WhiteGlint)
👀

Robert Podkoński
Welcome, Robin!

Ludvík Kružík
Another great little project is born here 🙂
Of course I can't miss it. 👀

Robert Podkoński
Feel warmly welcomed, Ludviku!

Marcin Dudek
👀

Robert Podkoński
I've been waiting for you, Marcin 😉

AJMM
Bravo. Brilliantly well done and great to see one of these finished. You've done a super job.

Robert Podkoński
Thank you very much, AJMM! You're too kind...

Łukasz Gliński
Niiice 👍 you also did a Bird Dog in 144 without losing your sight? Respect!

gorby
Well that got a "WOW!" from me! A tiny beauty.

Spanjaard
wow, great job!

Robert Podkoński
Thank you all: Spanjaard, Gorby, and Łukasz. Much appreciated 🙂 @Łukasz - I built this Cessna quite a long ago... and it is quite a simple kit. I find it useful as a "size comparison" item to my 1/144th builds 😉

Ludvík Kružík
Very nice model! 👍
Congratulations for successful completion.

Marko
small but nice, great result Robert.👍

Robert Podkoński
Thank you, Ludviku! Thank you, Marko! It was fun to build this.

Guy Rump
Great result Robert! 👍

Robert Podkoński
Thanks, Guy 🙂

Bruce Huxtable
If my best were as good as your worst, I would be very happy 🙂👍 A-Model do provide lots of fun challenges 😉

Robert Podkoński
Either you are too kind to me, Bruce, or too harsh to yourself 😉 Your models are much better than mine. Thanks, nevertheless 🙂

Bruce Huxtable
Au contraire, Robert. I have yet to try my hand at a bare metal finish, or indeed add fine antennae or rigging. I've only tried a few PE extras, and still only add paint by brush. The finishes you achieve are superb and thus inspirational, and there is never a hint of dodgy filler anywhere 👍👍👍

Robert Podkoński
Merci beaucoup, Bruce. I just try to do my best...

Robert Blokker
A bit of wash filter or pinwash here and there would already lift them up but actually they are not bad at all

Robert Podkoński
Thanks again, Robert... actually almost all of these flew away to my friends' sons already 😉

Villiers de Vos
Robert, Bruce captured it perfectly.

Alex Rodionov
WoW. Fine collection of rare jets. 👍

Robert Podkoński
Thank you, Villiers and Alex, you are too kind to me 🙂

Mark
Another collection of fantastic beasts, all beautifully finished. 👍 May I ask of photo 19, what is the aircraft type?

Robert Podkoński
Thank you, Mark, you're too kind to me. This is a kit of a prototype VTOL plane with thrust augmented wing concept:
Rockwell International XFV-1..nd Craftswork AA-2026, 1:72)

Robin (WhiteGlint)
Very nice collection, Robert.

Robert Podkoński
Thanks, WhiteGlint 🙂

Neil
Hi Robert. Very nice, love the XFV 😎

Robert Podkoński
Thanks, Neil 🙂

Lochsa River
quite the eclectic collection! don't you ever make anything "normal"...you don't have to answer that....

Robert Podkoński
LOL 😄 Speaking about "normal", Lochsa River:
Easy Ones | Album by podkon (1:72)

Alex K
I very much like the Ford Flivver, the Payen and the Bugatti...! 👍 ... and, of course, I do wish my not-so-well built models were as good as your "not-so-well" built models!

Robert Podkoński
Thank you very much, Alex, you're too kind to me 🙂 It seems like we like similar topics 😉 The three you mentioned are my favourite ones too.

Sebastian Meyner
Very nice builds of rarely seen subjects mate 👍

Robert Podkoński
Thank you, Sebastian!

Marcin Dudek
I saw some of them (including Ford) and they are grate. Plus It is always a nice suprise to discover a machine I have never heard about before.

Robert Podkoński
Thanks, Marcin! 😉

Mark
Robert, thank you for info on: Rockwell International XFV-1..nd Craftswork AA-2026, 1:72)

Villiers de Vos
A very unique collection. Very interesting and expertly finished.

Robert Podkoński
Thank you, Villiers, much appreciated! 🙂 @Mark: My pleasure! 😉

Bruce Huxtable
I'm enjoying and am impressed by these latest additions to you album, Robert. Looking superb 🙂

Robert Podkoński
Thanks, Bruce! Welcome! 🙂

Alex K
Oh! A cute Yak! 👍

Robert Podkoński
Thank you, Alex 🙂

Charlie Spitfire
why do yaks make bad sports players

because they yak and yak and yak

Robert Podkoński
😄

Łukasz Gliński
Some are nicer, some not, but Ford & Arado are the best 👍

Robert Podkoński
Thanks for your appreciation, Łukasz 😉

Guy Rump
A very nice collection you have there Robert. 👍

Robert Podkoński
Thanks again, Guy 😉

gorby
That's a remarkable collection Robert!

Robert Podkoński
Thanks for taking a look, Gorby! 😉

David Liney
Really interesting models. Lovely collection!

Robert Podkoński
Thank you, David. I am glad you like them.

Patryk S.
Outstanding collection Robert! The subjects are real stunners!

Robert Podkoński
Thanks, Patryk 😉

Alex K
Welcoming the newest additions 👍 👍

Robert Podkoński
🙂

Łukasz Gliński
So many nice builds not to belong to such album 😛 (Ford, Arado, DC-9, Dewoitine, Chaika, Delta, Optica and Saro... where the heck did you find the latter one?! 😮 )
And Eclipse doesn't seem to be such a past build either 😛

Alec K
An excellent collection of unique aircraft and nicely built for sure 👍

Neuling
I agree with Alec. Thanks for showing!

Robert Podkoński
Thank you, Mates, much appreciated.
@Lukasz - there are many different reasons to archivize the photos. I am sure you're smart enough to figure it out by yourself (hint - the printed modellers' magazine in the descriptions of some models presented 😉 )

Villiers de Vos
A beautiful and unique collection Robert. Thank you for sharing.

Robert Podkoński
Thank you for your kind words, Villiers 🙂

Andy Ball
What an eclectic bunch of builds! All wonderfully done too, don't know why you haven't shared them sooner!!

Robert Podkoński
You're too kind, Andy, thank you. (Frankly - I had to find these photos on my 15 years old computer and transfer them "manually" with a memory stick 🙂 )

Jv
Very interesting collection Robert

Robert Podkoński
Thanks Jv!

John
Very nice collection Robert. Love the unique types, thank you, very inspiring !

Robert Podkoński
Thank you, John. I am glad to hear that 🙂

Spanjaard
Excellent collection, pictures look good, and models look fantastic. Only thing wrong is the introduction "not so well assembled" 😉

Robert Podkoński
Thank you, Spanjaard, you're too kind 🙂

Thomas Ehrensperger
great, all the weird stuff you have built 😍

Robert Podkoński
Thanks for reaching these out, Thomas.

Bruce Huxtable
So many stunners, so many favourites!

Robert Podkoński
I am glad you like them, Bruce 😉

Michael Kohl
No Me-109? How dare you?! 😜

Robert Podkoński
No Spitfire neither Mustang, too... (in fact, I am going to assemble my very first Bf-109 in near future... in the Luftwaffe der R.O.A markings 😉 )

Łukasz Gliński
Similarly to me, but different camo 😋

Henry Ch.
I love your "Ford" plane.

Robert Podkoński
Thank you, Henry 🙂 It took me some time to find the kit, but it was worth the trouble...

Alex K
Aaaa! So, you've already built one of Aerobases's PE Lilienthal's! 👍

Robert Podkoński
It was a long time ago, Alex...

Bruce Huxtable
Oh, a moth died and landed on your window cill! 😉

Robert Podkoński
😄 😄 😄

Zbynek Honzik
That's a very original collection! I like it very much.
The ones I like the most are the Ford Flivver, AG-4 Crusader, Bristol Racer and of course the Edgley Optica. Awesome pieces! 👏👏👏

Robert Podkoński
Thank you again, Zbynek 🙂 You're too kind 🙂

Philmeidosem -1/72
Superbe boulot! quelle finesse! 🙂 Cela m'évoque Léonard de Vinci et également "L'Éole" de Clément Ader! En tout cas, encore bravo.

bughunter
Cool little glider! 1:160 seems to be very little as it is not big in bigger scales.

Robert Podkoński
Thank you very much, Philippe and Bughunter. @Philippe - I purchased it when I visited Le Bourget museum for a very first time - they sold AeroBase kits at that time... I heard somewhere that AeroBase kits are now to be purchased in some shop in the underground gallery adjacent to the entrance to the Louvre Museum...
@Bughunter - I plan to build the famous Lilienthal biplane glider soon from the same manufacturer 😉 Its span is about 4 cm actually...so not very small 😉

bughunter
Long ago I found some Aerobase kits in museums shops in Germany, but I bought only bigger ones. The 1894 glider in 1:48 is still in my stash 😉

Robert Podkoński
Lucky you! 🙂 Recently they produced a few fantastic kits...what is even more frustrating, since they are almost impossible to be purchased in Europe...

bughunter
You can still buy them, international shipping for 12€ sounds fair: aerobase.jp/en/
Oh, some new kits!

Robert Podkoński
I know I could buy them from Japan, but our customs office charges a tax as well as a handling fee...

bughunter
Same shit here 🙁

Philmeidosem -1/72
Good morning Robert! When I come back to Paris on vacation or on a weekend (I lived there for 22 years and my in-laws live there) I can go to the Louvre and I will tell you if there are indeed models from Aerobase…

Robert Podkoński
Thank you for the offer, Philmedosem 🙂 It would be great. I have a few friends in Paris and I suppose I could ask them to buy something for me. In fact, I've been to Paris like two years ago, but did not know about this shop 😭 ... Delfonics it is, according to the info on the AeroBase webpage.

Mr D
Great Album Robert 👍, you have some interesting subject 👌 very nice.

Robert Podkoński
You're too kind Mr D

alexanderb
Hi my friend..I want this sas jeep set..

Miguel Angel Fernandez Garcia
Ok. The kit is avaiable yet, the kit has no box as I commented. I accept payments in Bizum, Paypal and money transfer. The items that I have to sell are avaiable also in Wallapop, if you want take a look :

alexanderb
Are there any missing parts from black dog sas jeep set?

alexanderb
I saw you selling items and i also want the hand drilling bits. So in total we are 8+4=12€ and what will be the shipping cost to Greece?

Miguel Angel Fernandez Garcia
I look at it and tell you

scalemates

Jan Janssen

ALBERTO ITURBURU HERREROS
No, Mister D, my Phantom is an AliExpress kit. I suppused it is an Arii model becouse the picture

Mr D
Thanks 👍,
I know the kit, l have the mini-hobby version in stash, lve built 4 of those little 1:144 kits of AliExpress, there in my main album, alot of them are old Arri kits also can be found under ( cc lee ) in kit search.
Nice idea 💡😃👌👍
