Piero Magni PM-2 Experimental plane - Choroszy 1/72nd resin

 


The Piero Magni PM-2, successor of the previously posted PM-1:

is now ready to take to the air.

In the step-by-step building article you will also see contemporary photos and some articles upon which some color and detail changes were based (confirming the wing was a very light color, not dark brown, and the plane had registrations on the widened struts, and no regs. on top of the wing) :

As the decal sheet in the kit was missing the strut registrations and some details were not completely accurate, and alternate set from Arctic Decals was commissioned, which as usual worked perfectly. 

These two nice little kits are resins by Choroszy Modelbud that require some work and attention from the modeler, but anyone with experience and familiar with resin kits and their peculiarities should be able to obtain a nice replica. 



The two models side by side. In reality the planes didn't coexist:
