A great bit of collectible Kiwiana to just look at, use as a reference, or a totally new way to rediscover (or discover) the art of model aircraft this holidays. Way more realistic detail than you will get from traditional plastic and paint (which I made for over thirty *&^% years).
Just released for the 75th Anniversary in December 2009 is the de Havilland Fox Moth, of Air Travel NZ ltd, which first flew this Fox Moth on the West Coast in 1934. Air Travel was NZ's first licensed Airline.
Not available in shops, this beautifully illustrated professionally printed (NOT INK JET) model features TWO super accurate scale models of this historic airplane, comprehensive detailed instructions and drawings, One BY AIR Classique designer postcard featuring ZK- ADI flying over Fox Glacier and fully illustrated cover art based on a Limited edition print. Plenty of spare bits as well.
Designed by New Zealand's Contour Creative Studio, these BY AIR Classique paper models feature a phenomenal level of surface detail illustrated off archival photographs, and use plastic card and wire (not included) to produce a durable and accurate 1/72 scale model. We've been designing model buildings and aircraft for TEN years and this is our first release..We will be supplementing these models with downloadable backdrops from our web site shortly.
Only Touch-Up Painting and no fiddly decals,this model is recommended for the adult hobby enthusiast and will require tools and some additional modeling materials. People just won't believe it's printed.
We've also released two limited edition prints to mark the 75th anniversary of NZ' first airline, Air Travel (NZ) Ltd.
These are available from at $21 plus $6 postage from us. The prints are limited to only fifty numbered and are available for $30 plus $9 packaging.
