Actung!

I just bought the new Kondor (not a reissued 1970s kit). I'll post an in-box peek ASAP!

Hi Steffen,

Good pix, your's?

I need to figure out a way to get better shots. My first series were in bright sunlight. Today I reshot several in shade right next to the sunny areas.

Hope to have the text up Thursady 31st.

Hi Fred

No, not my pix or model.

Photographing the sprues is much more difficult than the model and I admire all the reviewers here on Aeroscale (or elsewhere) who have their own photo booth with professional lighting. I (and my pal Volker who took this pix) must rely on daylight, which is sometimes very good but mostly not. Either you get too much or too less contrast/shadow, read the light is too strong or too fuzzy.

good luck with your pix

cheers

Steffen
