Yup. The famous Berlin Express chasing a 109 under the Eiffel Tower. When I built that 1/32 scale Berlin Express Mustang, it did mention it in the instruction guide bio. Crazy and incredible…

What scale are those clear Mustangs and 109s? I/144 scale?
If so, it would be an out of scale diorama since the Eiffel Tower is 1/650 scale

The planes are 1/700 
and the Eiffel tower is 1/650 so it would probably work.

Yeah, those would work. Never knew they come in 1/700 scale. The smallest I’ve heard and seen are 1/144 scale. Looking forward to seeing you recreate that dogfight.

Neat project!
To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..

You’ve never built a 1/700 or 1/720 aircraft carrier? They make all sorts of aircraft in those tiny scales.BlackSheep214 wrote: ↑Fri Mar 08, 2024 6:25 pm
