Bravo sir, the Baron would be pleased I'm sure!
I'd be willing to bet though, that the original plane never looked as good. B |

John, This is a 1/28 Revell Kit and i used a testors dark red paint. This is a first of me using a Testors paint and it came out better then some of the others i was messing with. The rigging is done by a ultra fine wire which was not hard at all to do with a Dr.1.Then i got the wooden prop from Copper State which i was lucky to get Eric only had one left. When i get around to it after i get out of this bummer mode i'm in i want to add to the machine guns. Might get the Spandau mg kit that Copper State has. That would add a nice touch to the baron's tripe. JP |
