24th Slovenian Nationals


Another year, another Nationals. 24th edition. Modellers from Slovenia, Croatia, Italy, Hungary and Czech Republic gathered up and over 200 models were on display.  not all of them were captured on my phone camera. The build quality was top notch, but let's start with the Best of Show model, build by Uroš Kovač. Congratulations!



Best of Show - CRJ-200 1/72 scale


And some masterpieces...
















1/72? Really?






Belive it or not - this Mig-21 is in 1/144 scale

A-7E Corsair with small base

This is Revell repack of ancient Hasegawa kit, with some extras thrown in for a good measure. I've used Aires wheelbays, cockpit and electronic bays, bomb ordnance came from Brassin, Decals are from Aeromaster.  And since the fit was really poor, I have to mention Tamiya poliester putty. I've decided to make small deck base for it, which was made from scratch using Evergreen styrene sheets and profiles. Life rafts are home made 3D printed. Tie downs are from Infiny models, wheel chocks are from Wheeliant. Figures came from Aerobonus and Reedoak. Painted with Mr.Paints, weathered with great Ammo washes.
