Willi, I'm glad you made it over here. You should post some photos of your Fokker D.VII also.

I like that, Willi, both the subject and the way you've done the woodwork.  Excellent stuff- a great build and another aircraft I never knew existed!

Hi Willi.  Thanks for sharing your Lloyd over here.  I'm using your build log at Swanny's to help guide my 1/32 scratch build over in the Group Build section.  It is a truly beautiful model.  Your wood finish is great, and the entire log is extremely helpful.  ;D  Well done!

Regards,

Bob

Great looking model and display. Figures always give a sense of size.

That's a different subject matter - great work all round.

Good diorama as well

Thank you to all who have replied.


   You have made me feel at home here with all of your kind words .WW1 aircraft is new to me and I hope to learn much from this site . I have gotten hooked on the Wingnutwings kits and hope to post some builds in the next year

                                                                                                                 Thanks
