Not enough weeks in the year for that level of modelling, Steve!
Just build it, enjoy it and love it!

One more Nut in the collection 

   I'll borrow von Albie's photo; I found the same one under the tree on the 25th along with a DH2 and DH9. The word appears to be out in the Family, "no more ties or socks for the wise old elder"!
Cheers,

You are correct, Sir.

Being retired, ties are only for weddings and funerals, and my age, the latter happens more often than the former..........

Even though I've barely gotten a start on my first build, I have the WNW Alby D.V and Roden Dr.I waiting in the wings. I also feel an order brewing after the first of the year for at least one more WNW

Aroth,
   You are so correct in that! I did two weddings this year and zero funerals so it's been a good one (and I used the same tie for both!!)

My Christmas WNW arrived just yesterday... The Gotha G.IV!  My brother got it for me.  It was ordered back on the 12th, but sat in NZ for 6 days after being posted. I'm not complaining though .  Now I'll be Googling like crazy to find all the bells and whistles for it.  I've already decided to get Rowan's decal set, since I quite fancy the herringbone scheme.

This brings my WNW stash to 4 - Fokker E.III, Albatros D.Va, Hansa-Brandenburg W.29, and now the Gotha.  Maybe I should build one of them one of these days!

Hi Peter,

I have the Gotha myself and I still drool over it and fondle the plastic on occasion. It's such a beautiful kit. I'm hoping in the near future to order a set of props from Doug as they will just add to an already beautiful kit. The only other WNW kit I have is the Rumpler C.IV Early.

Hello all

Well the stash builds up for the glorious day when I move on from 1/48 to the WnW collection!

Christmas saw the arrival of the Fokker D.VIIF and it is now hangered safely with an SE.5a; a Bristol F.2b; an RE.8; an RFC Pup; a Sopwith Triplane; an AMC DH.2; and a Gotha G..IV . The question will be where to start?

Best wishes

The beginning, of course 

Are yes, sound advice, but when I'm writing stuff for my students, I often find that the last thing I write is the Introduction, on the basis that I don't always quite know what I'm introducing until I've actually written the whole thing!

Best wishes

Hello Nigel:

Ahhhhhh, where to start?  I'd start with the Pup.  A nice intro to 1/32nd, a straightforward build and a neat model to boot.  We modelers need a good rigging reference for the Gotha!

I have just collected my Christmas gifts!



DH.9 came here on December 31st, with customs toll  - I had to pay the ransom of 70 PLN, about 17 EUR for the release. Salmson followed and came today, this time the customs seemed to overlook it. Honestly speaking, I have no clue, how they choose the parcels to the toll?
Anyway, I am extremely glad! Now I can start planning my model building for the coming months. I am sure, that both of them will finish in Polish markings.

I was getting a bit tired of running to the hardware shop everytime I made a spoked wheel and needed a tyre, and in most cases they didn't have the size I required, so I purchased a set of O Rings off ebay. The set comprises 419 O rings of various sizes, cost - $23 post free.

A little something my bride found for me.



Not the standards of WnW, but for under $20 who's complaining.

Cheers,

A bargain Ernie.
