Review

Tackling Airfix's 1:72 Do 17 Z? Or FROG's ancient effort? Fact-checking ICM's Do 215?

Grab this ripping little reference.

Number 30 Kagero's "TopDrawings" range, Dornier Do 17Z/Do 215 – available in North America from Casemate – packs lots into less than two dozen pages.

You get a handy history, beautifully detailed drawings to 1:32-, 1:48- and 1:72-scales, and superb color plates for several subjects:

  • Do 17 Z-7, R4+HK, 1./NJG 2, 1941
  • Do 17 Z-2, 9K+AM, 4./KG 3, 1940
  • Do 17 Z-1, 3U+FU, 10./ZG 26, 1941
  • Do 215 B-5, R4+DC, 2./NJG 2, 1942
  • Do 215 B-4, PK+EM, (no date given)
  • Do 215 B-1, T5+AC, Aufkl.Gr.Ob.d.L., 1941
  • Do 17 Z-2, F1+HH, 1./KG 76, 1940

Feed your modeling muse!

There's even a set of 1:72-scale canopy masks. Just don't lose them – as I almost did!

Recommended!

My sincere thanks to Casemate for this review sample!
