Academy 1:48 Avia S-199

eHere was a simple little kit that I really enjoyed building. This one would certainly qualify as a weekend build, as there is not a lot to it. I added a few details in the cockpit to spice it up a bit, but overall it was out of the box.

Neat history about these aircraft. The fledgling Isreali Air Force bought these ex-german, aircraft to fight against british built, Egyptian Spitfires.

Weathering was accomplished with a combination of post shading with airbrush and pastels. Tamiya acrylics were used to finish.
