TreehuggerOh, wow, that looks nice for being 1:144 I think. 🙂
I wonder what kit would be good for 1:48 scale.

Marco PretoThank you for your interest in this little model! Just uploaded a few more photos.

TreehuggerDo you have more of these models in 1:144? I am asking because it would be fun to get some recommendations. I think I saw Eduard with a 1:144 spitfire somewhere last night, presumably a decent model. A nice F-16 and a Su-27 would be interesting for me.
I don't normally bother with 1:144 scale, execpt for airliners. I guess I can add some small stuff like a jet fighter for size comparison. 🙂

Marco PretoHi Treehugger:
I have a few of these 1:144 scale models. You can check them at my projects listing. You can also check my blog (link at the end of the message) for a few of these builds.
Some airliners look gigantic next to these small fighters!
Cheers and wishes of a great 2020!

Marco PretoThank you! I am trying to put together a small video, showing the conversion process. If I succeed (as this will be my first attempt in doing a video), it will be available at my blog!

Marco PretoJust uploaded one more photo, showing the two ASRAAM bodys (made from 1mm plastic rod) and a jig (made from a scrap piece of balsa) to allow gluing the missile wings at a perfect 180º degrees (it is just a 1mm slot, almost 0.5mm deep).
