Dewoitine 520 Iron Ace Airplane

Here is my Iron Ace single seat fighter plane, painted in the same metallic blue with gold wash as the Iron Ace himself.
In the comic the Iron Ace I don't think they specifically mention what kind of plane he uses.
But since the guy who gives him the plane is French and in France, a French plane seemed a good choice.
Since Iron Ace is British and by this time France had fallen to the Germans a plane in French markings seemed like a bad idea.
So I put British decals on it.
I don't normally do RAF planes but some of my USAAF plane models had RAF decal markings included in the model so here you go.
I always do my planes with wheels down so they can sit on a runway.

Black Mail

He is wearing plate armor that is magenta but he is called, Black Mail.
He is a robot super villain that works for the Germans in WWII.
Iron Ace is his primary opponent.
Super Toy Soldier Collector Billy Hill gave him and host of other figures to me.  Thank you BH!
Iron Ace faces off against Black Mail
Also Rubberman.
Rubberman, Black Mail and Iron Ace together.
Along with an Airfix US Army WWII military police officer for scale.
Part of my small but growing super hero collection.  Mostly I do super heroes and villains from the late 1930's until about 1980, but mainly WWII and Batman 66 related.  Many of them like these three are largely forgotten today.

Rubberman

Rubberman is a WWII German who has had an accident that makes him stretchy.
Not unlike the abilities of Mr. Fantastic from the Fantastic Four.
This is a figure from the spares box, and I added a sword from Caesar Miniatures.
I repainted this guy to match Rubbermans costume.
Interesting and distinctive figure.
Iron Ace who was painted a blue metallic with a gold wash.
Painted purple.

Iron Ace

Iron Ace is a comic book hero who as a British pilot gets shot down in WWII and rescued by a Frenchman.
He eventually dons the armor of Charlemagne when the Germans search the castle. 
He has magic armor and a magic airplane that is given to him by the Frenchman.
Actually the magic is some kind of technology that makes them impenetrable. 
This is a Caesar Miniatures European Knight with a head swap from another European Knight, mounted on a new base.
