For a long time I have had a strong interest in the Interwar Royal Air Force, the so-called Silverwing era, and have collected the models, often Vacu-Kits, for it for years. One of them, the 1:48 Aeroclub Vacukit of the Gloster Gauntlet Mk.II I have now started. The cockpit is scratch build except for a few small parts from the Roden Gladiator and a pilot's seat from Aires. The instrument panel is a modified part from Yahu.

The cockpit chapter is closed. Now the Vacu fuselage can be glued together.

Villiers de Vos
Lots of details. Coming along nicely.

Michael Kohl
I am in

Christoph Schnarr
Things are moving slowly. The tail unit with separate rudders is finished. The fuselage has been given better surface details (extra engravings, rivets, the typical British quick release fasteners etc.). At the moment I am busy with the implementation of a stable wing connection.

Michael Kohl
Thats some decent modelling.

Christoph Schnarr
Thank you, Michael!

Hanno Kleinecke
Wow, got to love that cockpit in this tiny scale - skilled as skill can be 👍

Christoph Schnarr
Thank you very much, Hanno!

Christoph Schnarr
The Gauntlet is finally ready to be painted.

Thomas Bischoff
Wow! Impressive work 👍

Christoph Schnarr
Thank you, Thomas!

Villiers de Vos
Nice progress.

Christoph Schnarr
The Vacumodel of the Gloster Gauntlet Mk.II by Aeroclub is finally finished. It was painted with the Xtrem Metal Colours from AK interactiv. The model is marked as the presumed commanding aircraft of No.74 (Tiger) Sqn. RAF from 1938.

Michael Kohl
You turned that Vacu-kit into a real beauty.

Thomas Bischoff
Top result! I would have never dared to start a vacu of a biplane, wish I had your skills

Mr James
Oh thats lovely. What a top result you've achieved

Christoph Schnarr
Thank you colleagues, I'm glad you like this colourful biplan!
