I'm also inspired by another artwork, and there are some pre-painted kits on market. https://mmzone.co.kr/album/showcase.php?dbname=gallerymain&id=53935 https://www.scalemates.com/kits/squadron-sqm7002-p-47d-thunderbolt--1116572 popeye the sailor, mtaylor, Old Collingwood and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wefalck Posted July 22, 2021 Share #4 Posted July 22, 2021 Somewhere in the depths of my picture analogue archive there must a couple of images of one on a country road in Hungary in the early 1970s. They were seen then and there occassionally. Here is a Wikipedia-page on the company: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Velorex. There are also quite a few pictures on the Net and YouTube has videos with them. Didn't know there was a kit for it. Nice idea to present it in a sort of 'exploded' form ! popeye the sailor, thibaultron, modeller_masa and 3 others 6 Quote wefalck panta rhei - Everything is in flux Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should have seen her confused face. 😆 When the girl breaks and opens the frame, this kit will be 'complete'.

popeye the sailor Posted July 22, 2021 Share #9 Posted July 22, 2021 that's a pretty interesting idea.........to have a rare model kit, prepaint the parts and curio it. instruction sheet and decals as a backdrop........not too sure about the resale value though cool idea!
