Re: Altaya Biplanes

I am saying that the faux bronze pencil sharpener aircraft models have better QC! Buyer beware. Look really hard at the tri-plane pictures. See those big humps on top of the upper wing? Those are globs of glue that are painted over. Look how thick and warped the wings are.....YUK Blah, Ptewy, ee gads, barf out ,gag me with a Sopwith.

Re: Altaya Biplanes

One of the ebay sellers has posted quite a few pictures of the new HS-123 (you have to scroll down to see them ) and frankly they dont look so bad after all- especially if you are willing to make "corrections", as I am. Also provided on the seller's site are pictures of the Altaya desert version of the BF-110,which didn't get me very excited.

Re: Altaya Biplanes

I dont know if anyone else has noticed, or cares, but the planetadeagostini website has posted pictures of an Arado AR-68, a Boeing P-12E and what they refer to as a Fiat CR-32. The latter looks more like a Fiat CR-42 in fighter-bomber livery, however. I am keeping an eye on this new line ,which includes many rare planes,and will probably buy some in the hope that I can redetail them and make them somewhat presentable. If so they will add some welcome depth to my collection.

If you get and detail some of them, please share with us (pics would be great, too) how it/they turn out!!!

I will try to show you guys how my detailing came out, but I'm not very good at picture-taking, let alone posting them.
