Lo que nos cuenta Javier Berga es que el nacimiento de este barco significó más que un revolucionario y moderno diseño, fue el desarrollo del wakeboard en sí mismo. La creación de este casco ha sido un antes y un después en el mundo de las embarcaciones de recreo y de wakeboard

The kit and its assembly:
This quickie whif was a rather short notice build – I had a surplus Mastercraft PZL.11c in my stash, originally part of a cheap lot, and for a long time no idea what to do with it …until I read an article about the Hungarian/Czech clash right before the outbreak of WWII, with very detailed army and air force activities, including profiles and pics of some aircraft of that era.
That spawned the idea to build a Hungarian PZL.11 from the kit, more or less based on a Fiat CR.32bis (aircraft V.107) in Hungarian service with a very attractive paint scheme as “design benchmark”.
The PZL.11 was built almost OOB – the kit is simple, but has very nice surface details. Fit is mediocre, though, especially the stabilizers puzzled me. The only thing I changed is the propeller; instead of a two blade wood piece I installed a three-bladed alternative (from a Matchbox Provost, coupled with a spinner from an Italeri La-5) for a modernized/different look.
Painting and markings:
This is an individual interpretation of a real aircraft’s paint scheme - I found VERY contradictive sources about the potential paint scheme. MKHL aircraft began to be camouflaged in a three-tone scheme from October of 1938. The upper surfaces received irregular, undulating patches of Green/Grey/Brown, while the undersides were painted light Grey-Blue.
As no specific official camouflage patterns were issued, a wide variety of styles and colors resulted, depending as much on the means available in every case, as on the particular tastes of the maintenance personnel detached to do the job. I also guess that many foreign aircraft like the Italian CR.32s or He 70 reconnaissance bombers simply kept their home countries schemes/colors and were successively re-painted with whatever was at hand.
I based my scheme on a CR.32’s profile in a magazine, and I assume that the print colors are brighter than the real Hungarian aircraft – on other profiles of the same machine it looks as if it was painted in RLM 61, 62, 63 and 65! Anyway, I liked the more saturated colors, so I went for this more decorative option.
The colors I used are Olive Green (RAL 6003 from Modelmaster), Dark Green (FS 34079; Humbrol 116) and Brown (Modelmaster), with Pastel Blue (Humbrol 44) undersides. The latter tone is also found as irregular patches on the upper surfaces, it really looks wild and colorful – esp. in combination with the Hungarian national markings.
Personally, I think that the typical Huingarian paint scheme of the time was just a crude addition of paint on top of the original bare metal/aluminum finish of many aircraft, but pics are difficult to interpret.
