Outstanding builds Rick, beautifully done.  Especially like the streaking on the F.I.  Congrats on your efforts.

Rick,
   What a long haul this has been for you! I envy your ability to work three Builds at once, I failed when I tried two! Very nice, all three and I particularly like the F.1 as well, the streaked finish is outstanding. I know the D.VIII is, like mine, on hold so what's next for the modelling "machine"??
Cheers,
Lance

Juan, Ed, Patrick, and Lance. hanks for the Comments Guys they are greatly appreciated. Lance you are correct in that this was a LONG HAUL! Building three at once just takes three times as long  8) As for the next projects, with the EV on the backburner I am looking at a Jasta 10 OAW albatross DIII (Roden), and Perhaps the WNW Camel ( Hoping for 43 sq. aces from Rowan  ::)) or Another SE5a. ( McCuddens 4863), WNW and True Detail conversion.

Thanks for commenting Dave, Greatly appreciated! I am sure you will do the Roden kit proud. I would suggest getting the Part of Poland PE. Some good stuff is included!
