- Welcome to The Scale Modelling Cafe and another Sprue Tour video. As I write this I'm about to fly home for 5 weeks therefore I thought I'd do a few of these types of videos to keep you going until I can get back to the bench in May.
This kit is the Curtis H75N from Clearprop. I think this little company from Ukraine goes under the radar, but as you'll see from the quality of the plastic they are right up there with the best. I hope you enjoy the video, and if you are not familiar with Clearprop I hope that you'll try something from the brand, you won't be disappointed.
Thanks for doing the sprue tour Jamie, it looks like a beautiful kit, and that whole Hawk series of aircraft fought or trained all around the world throughout the war, I remember the Hobbycraft kits they were pretty good basic kits of some obscure stuff, but this ClearProp stuff is in a whole other league, and 20 or 30 years more advanced though to be fair.
I'm halfway through the build, going great so far
Lovely looking kit ,it makes a nice change to see a manufacturer doing something a little different as we are spoilt for choice when it comes to Spitfires , Hurricanes and mustang's. I'll definitely be looking out for one of them , especially if they eventually do the P40 . I've just built a hobby 2000 p40 " the lulu Bell "
With wonderful noseart flown by Phillip Adair . What a story he had and what a amazing pilot. It would be Superb if they done a new tool kit of such Aircraft.
It would be great if they could do a P-40 series for sure.
@@thescalemodellingcafe Definitely especially " lulu belle " I hope this link works as the short film is well worth watching .ruclips.net/video/g96eikTDXbw/видео.html
Really good to see these emerging firms choosing different aircraft and schemes from the mainstream. Looking forward to seeing this build Jamie.
Lovely to see something a bit different, and at this quality!
Good to see something different. To tell the truth I'm getting tired of P-51s,
Spitfires, Me-109s, you know what I'm getting at.
Thanks for this teviee.
Thanks Marvin
I want one!
Excellent video and kit....well done Clear Prop! 👍🏻👌🏻👏🏻
Get it mate, you won't be disappointed!
bought a pile of stuff from them thanks to you , so far they have been fantastic , stuff posted
Legend, I'll let them know mate. Thanks.
Excellent review! I ordered this kit as soon as it hit the market and having built numerous Hobbycraft P-36/H-75 Hawks my reaction was similar. Truly amazing on the sprue and the Decograph decals look very similar to those in the newer ICM releases. Very nice. Plus, I finally have an adversary for my Vichy MS.406 in Hutter's markings.
Ah yes, I think they are Decograph. Be aware that these only flew in the Far East and Argentina as far as I am aware, all the others had retractable undercarriage.
@@thescalemodellingcafe Yes indeed. I believe that the one depicted in the boxart was involved in a scrap with Vichy French fighters based near the Thai border.
@@erikwade3668 I didn't know that mate, thanks for the gouge.
Loving the scheme featuring the Elephant markings, think I'll order one of these via Andy too. Boy those surface details and in 1/48 scale too, brilliant. Hope the home visit is going well too.
You won't be disappointed mate
Ordered one but decided to get it from the Ukraine - a bit of support and all that. Thanks for highlighting this one.
The French flew the H-75 and had some success in it when fighting the German invading forces in 1940. The Clearprop 1/72 Mig 23 looks amazing, a lot more detailed than the 1/48 Trumpeter one.
They didn't fly the H-75N though! This one had fixed gear! My MiGs are inbound, I just had a message!
It does look amazing indeed. It would be really nice if they did expand the range right through to the P-40 series. Perhaps start with an F or L as there seems to be a big gap for these variants in 1/48 especially, I know trumpeter did the F in 1/32 but we all know what youre getting with that. Perhaps they could then move through to the E, K, M and N variants. It's a biased opinion from me being a massive P-40 fan boy but I know there's a lot of us out there. Great review as per usual.
It would be amazing if they did!
Thanks!
Tom, another Super Thanks! You really are very generous, thank you ever so much, it's hugely appreciated mate.
Hope they do the retractable u/carriage ones....I have some old Eduard decals for French a/c
That would be awesome Paul!
more towards what equip you need , again thanks
Thanks Tom
Decals are by Decograph.
They do Dora Wings too
Thanks Simon
Nice. Antics you say?
Yes mate
