They’re made from Valom kits. These use some tiny brass components. I found those totally impossible so eventually scratch built the pieces with spare plastic off all sorts of old kit sprues. (I throw nothing away.) In the end that wasn’t too difficult and I will use Valom kits again (they are cheap), but avoid the brass from the start. Unlike the brass the decals are superb and easy to use. I’m actually very pleased with the finished planes.
