A109BA

Erik De Smet
This will need a lot of scratchwork, Nils; where did you find the daco decals ?

Nils Steyaert
i found the decals on DACO's website, they have recently become available.
there is indeed a lot of scratchwok and modifications to do to make this from a K model into a BA version.

Watching! I want to do Aussie Navy A109's but they need lots of mods/scratchbuilding too!

Erik De Smet
The undercarriage is quite different from the kit, Nils, a modellers' compromise ?

Nils Steyaert
yes, its a compromise, if i had to scrachbuild new gear on this scale it wouldnt look that symetrical.
i hope they will release aftermarket parts for this sometime in the future.

Nils Steyaert
the model is now finished, the last layer of varnish is drying, pics will follow later this afternoon.

Liking the scratch built detailing 🙂

Nils Steyaert
ok, pictures have been uploaded.
thanks, i think the scratchbuilding came out quite well.

Erik De Smet
Nice result, Nils, but is is a pity you did not use Albion Alloy tubes , which have much thinner walls , for the exhaust pipes.

Very good work. 👍
