Mexican Revolution era aircraft
Another long term project finally done :)
Another aspect of the Mexican Revolutionary conflict which I can add to our tabletop :)
This started out as a WW1 era Avro "pusher" which John (Bannockburn Boy) over on the SOTCW forum was kind enough to pass on to me a year or so ago - cheers John :)
The Various "armies" used all sorts of odd planes bought from anyone who was willing to sell, so I just made a generic early type and it is NOT meant to be a accurate model of a specific make/type.
I cut-down the cab and replaced the wheels with skids, then repainted it a neutral sand/cloth colour and added bright "hand painted" Mexican colours. Then added a civilian pilot.
Now all my flight stands are already in Spain you forgive the crap pics.
That is great- though I wouldn't fancy piloting it.
ReplyDeleteCheers,
Pete.
Has to be said their pilots - European & Yank mercenaries plus ultra brave Mexican novices had huge balls :)
