Rick both builds are great. I love the woodgrain on Albie and PC10 on Snipe.
As always you prove to be a very talented modeller mate!

Beautiful Snipe, RAGIII.  I'm working on the late version now, but it won't come close to the way yours looks.  Nice job!

Thanks for the comment! I am sure your Snipe will be every bit as good as mine...or better. Rember,I know ALL of the FLAWS in Mine!

Hi Rick:

Snipe looks mighty fine to me.  I think you did an outstanding job it.  Looking forward to a few more pics.  I did notice you didn't paint the prop hub.  By choice or oversight?  Just curious.

Thanks Mark, I appreciate the comment! As for the Prop Hub, yes I am aware, it was one of those touch up things I mentioned in a BROAD way 8)

PS: Also need to add the piece that fits on the cabane strut, the ring and bead sights, and paint a couple of other things
PPS: The clear inspection panels on the wings also

Another grand job from you, Rick!

Your Snipe really looks the business.
