Well, this is a nice treat- one doesn't expect to see one of these come along! Thanks again Chris and Shessi!

-Happy Holidays, Mike
 
Very nice looking aircraft. Pity it didn't get a proper propeller for better performance.
Perhaps you might wish to move the upload announcement from the CFS1 A-20 thread over here where it is more appropriate?

I couldn't resist.....

Only 12 B-135-1 production aircraft were build, and all for the Bulgarian Air Force. When the Germans invaded Czechoslovakia they blocked further production of this aircraft. So this is an "what-if" aircraft which shows the B-135 after it was introduced in the Czechoslovakian Air Force to replace the early type B-534 fighters.

Cheers,
Huub
 
Shessi, Huub, many many thanks for this wonderful model and repaints !
As usual it's awesome !

Thanks for the nice words, but you should thank Chris Lampard as he is the real man behind these beautiful models.

The repaint is available in the library.

Enjoy,
Huub

The first prototype for what would become the Avia B-135 was the B-35-1. As can be seen below, this aircraft was painted in a camouflage scheme.

I think this must have inspired the Czech model kit manufacturer RS models to release a B-135 model in a similar scheme. I think he was carried away by the idea a bit, but it looks nice.

The camouflage scheme is of course fictional as there were only 12 production aircraft build. Which all ended in a rather boring Bulgarian standard scheme.
 
Beautiful Huub!

I saw that scheme early on and then realised it was for the B35, but does look good, and would have been the scheme used by the Czechs.....so a very good reason!

Cheers
