I have already built many of the offerings from Khee-Kha Art Products in Alaska.

Their vac+resin bits kits are really nice and really fairly priced.
Here is the latest project, a Tiolene/Pure Oil/Woco Pep
Bellanca CH-300.
Different schemes and airframes for the Tiolene / Woco Pep / Pure oil Bellancas:
Different schemes and airframes for the Tiolene / Woco Pep / Pure oil Bellancas:
Bellanca 300-W NC12617 seen in three configurations:
-In one photo it appears (with a portrait of Jimmie Mattern
insert) with a toothed speed-ring. The wing and wing strut leading edges have a
color band.
-Same plane later appears with completely painted wing
struts and a color band all around the perimeter of the wing. The speed-ring
has now only two triangles one on each side and a very thin painted leading
edge. Landing gear is also colored. A wind-driven generator is attached under
the nose by three rods.
-Same machine, almost same scheme, but this time not painted
wing struts.
Bellanca CH-300 NC10017 seen in two configurations:
-As represented in this model and
-Same livery but a different engine, big spinner and
different exhaust arrangement.
This model was built in parallel with a twin -in another
livery- that I may post in time too.
As usual I tried to document the building so it may be of
help for fellow modelers. This particular machine had no steps, otherwise present in almost any other Bellanca to facilitate access to the cabin.
A few light careful passes with a new blade:
Back and forth bending motion usually cleanly separates the parts:
Interior less inst. panel and rudder pedals (these have to be attached to the resin nose provided):
Individual windows are prepared:
I use a different approach for the wing spars, but the kit's is also sound:
