1908 Antoinette - 1/72 Entex
This was going to be a usual WIP followed by the finished product. However, with some trouble arising on the Zeppelin-Staaken, I put this together during a recent Saturday full of College Football TV. So, I've got the beginning pics and the end pics, but no in between.
This is the second of Entex's 3 pack of Early Birds. The Antoinette began as an airplane engine company that later went into it's own air machine venture. That company only lasted about 4 years, going bankrupt after submitting a rather nicely designed monoplane to the military (who declined).
So, here it is. About a day and a half total time - something rare for me.
Was definitely a fun one to build.
Thanks for looking and Happy Holidays,
Mike

Breathtaking in derivation to the birds. I luv the early planes, I bought but never built a small "Avro" of the era. The British TV miniseries covered the era of early flight. Thanx for a rare and beautifully built model!

Excellent build! These early aero-machines were something else - no wonder there was a huge amount of respect and admiration for those who flew them. A wonderfully unique and evocative plane.
