Album info

Here are the images of the Avia B-34 3D print. This predecessor to the B-534 was only available in resin from RS Models and has long been out of production. The model was designed and made available by Slovak modeler Robert Blaschke, to whom I am very grateful for an opportunity to build this aircraft. I ordered the print from Shapeways (see link below) and chose "smoothest fine detail plastic" material which provides the highest detail resolution available from this source as of July 2020.
