Hello just introducing myself

Hello, my name is Josh Zephirin I am an avid WWI collector/modeller of WWI German Army models in 1/72 scale. I joined here (I'm also a member of Landships) because I also do alot of WWI German Aircraft. I search the web over for rare and hard to find models. Currently, I am searching for a Roseplane Drachen Balloon kit or a Hippo models one if its not to expensive. If anyone knows where to find such a kit please post back and say hello.

Warmest Regards and Greetings, Josh Zephirin.

Greetings and welcome!

Hippo kits can usually be found at "Modelimex" on the web. Just out is their 1:48 Gotha G.V. Not sure who carries their 1/144 Zeppelins and 1:72 obs balloon.

FR73 Welcome to the Aerodrome. If there is a place to find your Roseplanes Drachen vac kit... this is it. Someone should be along shortly with the answer to that question. Good to have you here.

Thank you all for your warm words of welcome. I'd also like to introduce my aviation detachment, So far, I've built the following 1/72 scale models:

Revell Fokker E-III eindecker

Revell Fokker D-VII

Choroszy Albatross C.I

Airfix Hannover C. 111a

I'm currently working on a Roden Gotha G.IV

And after that, I've got a Revell Fokker Dr1 to be painted like Werner Vosses.
Apart from this neat last one, all my planes wear a distinctive yellow paint job, (I use Humbrol 81 Pale yellow). collectively I call them my goldfinches.

Greetings, Josh.
