A classic old and hard kit from Łukasz... I can't miss it!

Patryk S.
Following! Is this build an indication and warning of an incoming Czapla build?😜 Greetings!

Maciej Bellos
Oh, gotta see this one!

Moreno Baruffini
Oh wow! Following!

Mr D
Nice 👍👍

Nicolas
Count me in as well.

Łukasz Gliński
Welcome everyone, glad to have you on board.
@Patryk: LOL, it is waiting in the stash indeed, but I'd like to train some tricks on Łoś and RWDs 6&8 first 😄

Andrzej Rygiel
Insert "I was there 3000 years ago" meme 😄 I got this as a souvenir from our family trip to Poland back in the 80's and finished it in one afternoon sitting straight after our return. I do not doubt you are going to make much better PZL.37 replica than I did back then...

Alec K
Ahh, I have this thing somewhere, in glorious blue. Watching, of course.

Ben M
👀 just what I like

Mr D
Nice to do a vintage kit... takes you back.
I remember doing the Matchbox Electric lightning ⚡ with my dad as a boy..
Good luck with everything 👍👍

Robert Podkoński
Somehow I missed that... taking a seat, of course! (I kinda "built" this kit three or four times as a kid...)

Łukasz Gliński
Welcome everyone, glad to see y'all here 👍
Say hello to the crew members awaitng varnish and washing.
Alec, I'm very jealous, I have failed to locate the turquoise one 😄
Andy&Rob - I sort of built at least two, no more I could remember, one has been lost 'flying' (in my hand) somewhere over my parents garden 😄
Andy - you're welcome 😄

Mr D
Nice to see this one making a start.... nice project
Looking good 👍👍

Moreno Baruffini
Hello!!!! 😊

Zbynek Honzik
I built this Łoś kit about 35-40 years ago.
These are memories...
Good luck with the build Łukasz! 🍀👍

Cuajete
First steps. Great!

Alec K
Looks like a great progress on this one Łukasz 👍

Łukasz Gliński
Thank you mates - now you can behold the main colours. Each of them got a filter on top as I wasn't happy with the shades 😄

Moreno Baruffini
I think that you exactly catch the perfect colour for the livery! What colour did you used? I remember that ten years ago I tried to build a "Karas" and I discussed a lot with my Italian mates about the right shade... 😉

Łukasz Gliński
Ciao Moreno
I used the following colours: C010 Dark Polish Khaki, Hataka Hobby Orange Line Matt, Acrylic Lacquer, 17ml & C036 Light Blue-Grey, Hataka Hobby Orange Line Matt, Acrylic Lacquer, 17ml
However they didn't match my liking, the khaki being too brownish and the latter - neither light nor blue, just grey.
So I added a bit of filter on top using very thinned C084 Kaki Français, Hataka Hobby Orange Line Matt, Acrylic Lacquer, 17ml & C083 Gris Blue Clair, Hataka Hobby Orange Line Matt, Acrylic Lacquer, 17ml

Moreno Baruffini
Great! Thanks for the tip! Ciao!
Ps I'm a fan of the Hataka colours, I find them very good 👍🏼

Bas Tonn
Interesting... curious about the progress
Keep up the good work

Alec K
Ah, the khaki! Is it green? Or brown?! No, it's…. Neither
😂😂😂

Łukasz Gliński
Thanks mates. Hope to start decalling soon.
Alec, the IBG Łoś' is even bigger riddle in this context - it shows Hataka's Dark Khaki as equivalent of Lifecolor's TM008 - former being very brown as you can see, the latter (sitting in my paint cabinet too) being grey-greenish 😄
Moreno - di niente, you're always welcome 👍

Alec K
Those color equivalencies are sometimes waaay off. One can go batty trying to dial them in. I like your "it looks good to my eye" approach 👍

Łukasz Gliński
Original decals are so bad, that I need to order modern version by Techmod, so slight delay is imminent

Moreno Baruffini
...A "classic" choice with vintage models 😉

Cuajete
Fortunately, decals can still be found for some older kits 👍

Simon O'Gorman
Enjoying watching your build Łukasz.

Mr D
Nice project.. looking good 👍
Like the classic/retro kits 😃👍

Casey Beckett
Very cool! It looks like a bat. That wing chord is wiiiiiiiiide. Love the crew painting too.

Cuajete
I agree with Casey. Looks great 👍

Łukasz Gliński
Thanks mates, fingers crossed the canopy framing will look good enough to see the crew.

Mr D
Doing a nice job with it Lukasz 😃👍
Much antenna work on this one ?

Łukasz Gliński
Luckily not much Mr D - one line connecting the both tail tips with the visible mast.

Łukasz Gliński
Aaaand across the finish line. Unfortunately I wasn't able to make the front transparency less milky than this 🙁
Daylight pics to follow tomorrow

J35J
Great work on that old kit! Congrats👍🏻

Ben M
What a lovely result! Classic.

Simon O'Gorman
A really nice result - congrats Łukasz.

Moreno Baruffini
Bellissimo! 🤟🏼 Great result!!!!

Alec K
I like it a lot. Really a very elegant design 👍

Łukasz Gliński
The "daylight" pics are here, but it's so gloomy here lately that over half of them were blurred and had to be deleted.

Cuajete
Fantastic result for this old kit.
Congrats!

Mr D
Very Nice Lukasz, nice job 👍👍 of a vintage done to the right formula for it's age l think.

Neuling
👍

Patryk S.
Great build - it shows that this kit when given some modeling love is still not so bad and buildable. +10 for nostalgia😜
