I used the older 1/72 RVHP Letov Š.20/II resin kit (No.7214; 1999 year) for my Letov Š.20 project.

I built the Š.20 mainly out of box. I added and modified several parts (wind shield, exhaust tubes, guns, wheels, radiators etc). I have used Agama enamels colours for painting.

Letov Š.20 was Czechoslovak bi-plane fighter produced by company Letov from 1925.
