Lancia 1ZM 1/72 Copper State Models

Ondřej Škarka 29. 1. 202230. 1. 2022 1 Comment

The 1:35 CSM Lancia 1ZM is a really beautiful kit and when the company announced that it will also be produced in 1:72 I was really happy. This really good-looking Italian armored car was even used by our legionnaires – which is why I bought another kit with Vizimodels accessories to recreate the Czechoslovak Lancia.

Crusader Mk. III AA with 40mm Bofors Gun 1/72 IBG Models

Ondřej Škarka 26. 4. 202129. 4. 2021 0 Comments

Last year, IBG Models produced another piece of their Crusader family, this time an anti-aircraft version of this famous tank, which could not be missed in my collection. It’s a 40 mm Bofors gun mounted on the Crusader Mk.III chassis. I consider the IBGs Crusader one of the best small-scale British tank model kits on the market.

Siebel 202A Hummel 1/72 AML

Ondřej Škarka 9. 3. 202129. 4. 2021 1 Comment

I started the build of the Hummel (“bumblebee”), Siebel’s eye-catchy sports airplane design last autumn and recently returned to it after a long pause. This shortrun model kit doesn’t look too inviting in the box, but surprisingly the build was really not that bad.

Letov Š.20 1/72 Kovozavody Prostejov

Alois Šmolík’s design of Letov Š.20 was a standard fighter plane of the Czechoslovak Air Force during the 1920s. Its demilitarised version, which was utilized by the Hanácký flying club in the Moravian city of Olomouc between 1934 and 1937, is presented by me and the Kovozavody Prostejov manufacturer.

My most recent build is this German sports plane of the early 1930s, the last of a line designed by Willy Messerschmitt. In 1934-1935, Wilhelm Stör won the German Aerobatic Championship in a M.35b. I built his machine from the time of the Berlin 1936 Olympic Games.

For the purpose of a relax build I chose my favourite sport plane – the Zlin XII by RS models. I decided to build the British marking, as I already had the Czechoslovak DH Puss Moth.

Short S.4 Satellite 1/72 Avis

This kit caught my eye at the ModellBrno event while I came around a seller from Ukraine. I haven’t known this particular aircraft until that moment, neither the kit producer.
