Udet in 1:16

**Nightbomber** · 12-07-2013 03:21

During the site downtime, I spent some time to finish assembling and painting a special figure: Ernst Udet in 1:16. I am not absolutely sure the model looks like that ace, but at least the manufacturer thinks it does

This is how it went...

Wow, thats really cool. Those skin colours look brilliant.

Great job Andy. Was the grass included or your personal touch ?

Great work, Andrzej!
It looks enough alike the real man, I'll tell you.

The plastic brown base was included, Willi. The grass is a Citadel product, so a kind of personal touch

Really great work Andy!
What other Aces are available in those Kits?

To my despair, the manufacturer prefers German aces only, Barry. The second one I have to build is Goering in a rather typical pose (guess which one).
There is MvR in a production line, not yet available. I hope it will produce Some Entente pilots sooner or later. I would love to have a collection of the knights of the sky.

Great work Andrzej! Figures that large always seemed difficult to paint for me as I find it hard to give them a realistic look. That's why I never made an attempt. You however did it brilliant! I'm looking forward to see you Goering!

Great work, Andrzej.

So where is the 1:16 Fokker D.VII model?

A friend of mine build those 1:16 figures, too. I think Dragon produces such figures.

The Ernst Udet model is very well done! It would be amazing to have a collection of famous WW1 pilots in this scale standing at the table side while a game was on.
