Arado Ar 68E - Legion Condor

This Classic Airframes model has made me discover a little seen plane and with a line that I have been charmed with it.

The kit comes with resin parts for the cockpit since it is habitual in the brand, and without photogravures. The assembly is the usual one with this brand, to use much putty and sandpaper, but the effort is worth it for the final result, a beautiful plane.

The kit that comes with the calcas of the German WWII markings, but I finished it as the Legion Condor version from the Spanish Civil war.  To do this I used some Replimodels's decals in 1/48 and airbrushed the San Andres's Cross on the Rudder.

I hope you like it.  As always I'm dedicating this work to my companions in Spain at the AIME, the forum 1/72, forum Yoryi and the Association of Model-maker.
