Here are first pictures of these lovely kit. Again, Airfix has to be praised for parts fit, sound general layout and crispness of detail.
To make things not all too cheap I got a cockpit set and a new canopy from Pavla; you can see the Resin being fixed to the plastic fuselage halves. The Resin-seats got further harnesses made of painted Tamiya masking tape.

Thank you Michael! The "Gnat" is quite a small and neat aircraft, no wonder that´s its 1:72 representation seems to be a fast build. There is not much more to be assembled; just some cleaning up of the few glue seams- and then it´s time for Alclad.

Indeed, Michael...
Some little progress here. Gunzes Gloss Black paved the way for Alclad White Aluminum; next step will be masking the Alu to get the glossy Red on the surfaces.

Some steps further... Decals have been applied on a coat of Gunze Clear Gloss Acrylic, next the surfaces will be sealed by a second layer of the same.
Some corrections with dry brush have to be made, but the Gnat is undeniably nearing completion... 🙂

Thank you both! That´s very kind, Soeren 🙂
Oh yes Choppa, I would be pleased. She did marvelous work on this colour scheme. I need the 48er scale Gnat too!

This the trouble with watch cool builds go together, my stash ends up that bit larger because now I fancy a 1/48 Gnat !! 😄

Oh yes, all these offers are just too tempting...!
The "Gnat" is nearly finished, just a few things left to be done....

Hallo Stefan, danke für Deinen Kommentar! Die nächste Gnat- und die kommt bestimmt und in 1:48- lässt höchstwahrscheinlich alle Farbe Farbe sein und erscheint in glänzendem Schwarz 🙂
That project is finished, the new picture show you the final result: all in all a marvelous, precious and trouble free kit, well worth being build!
Thank you all for comments and interest!

Hallo Roland, kann mich hier nur anschließen! Ich kenne die Gnat in 1:72, deine Präzision an dem kleinen Modell ist wieder einmal bewundernswert! Sehr schöne Arbeit! LG Christian

Model seems nice. do you also have pics from the underside? I've thought I saw some silvering or is it he work of the light at the XP-decals in the orange parts. I do have the same on my Blohm and Voss, it seems like silvering, but is a strange effect with the light, and I wanted to know wether it will be fixed by adding some clear varnish over them...

Thank you all for your kind words!
Bart, I have added photos from the Gnat´s underside. You have been right: the first layer of Gunze gloss clear as a preparation for the decals was not enough to prevent a kind of silvering, but the following layers did seal the decals and stop that effect.

Hi Christian, it´s just a little "Gnat" easy to be overlooked! 🙂
Thank you, your words mean a lot to me!

Excellent. A difficult paint scheme that requires patience while masking. You nailed it !

Such attention nine years after construction makes me happy - thank you for your feedback on the Gnat! I remember it as a good buildable kit of a, well, small aeroplane

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

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

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 👍👍👍

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

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

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

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!

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.

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.

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 😛

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 😉 )

A beautiful and unique collection Robert. Thank you for sharing.

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 🙂 )

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

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 😉 )

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! 👏👏👏
