This
is a Broplan vacuum formed 1/72 ATR kit, it started out as an Alitalia ATR
72-500 but I shortened the fuselage changed the engine nacelles and props. I
also added an interior (not that it will ever be seen) and applied my own
markings in the colors of my (previous) employer. The kit is fairly crude and I
didn't correct everything as it had to be finished sometime. I made my own
landing gear sponson and engines from silicon/resin castings and main wheels are
re-casts from spare parts from another kit.
The
graphics are painted on and the registration is old Letraset dry rub down
letters. All paints are Tamiya acrylics.

I
bought 2 kits when I purchased this one having never before built a vac kit, I
wanted some spares if I made any mistakes. I did do that but not enough to
warrant cutting up the second kit for parts. So, I built it as well.
