Peter of Airscale has test built the first of the injected plastic and 3D prints parts of the Do 17Z in 1:32 scale

So I successfully built a printed test shot of the coming injection moulded 1/32 Dornier 17 kit.

The clear parts are printed too and are very poor, the IM parts will be perfect. It was a valuable exercise as I found 30 design changes to improve fit and finish and it also helps to see it ‘in the flesh’

When I get the moulded test shot parts in September, I will build a proper test shot – this one has a lot of geometric flaws from trying to print such large thin parts and the rivets and panel lines are half arsed, but it still looks the part

pre-orders should open in December limited to 100 kits
