Title: What to build - Raiding the attic
Post by: rayb24 on April 06, 2018, 04:25:05 AM

I pulled down some models that were insulating the attic. So what should I build..

Before anyone asks,  yes the CSM model wasnt from the attic. although I do have a CSM Resin one that I pulled down too.

I have the Macchi M5, the box got a bit flattened but its all there. Albatros DII, DIII, Bristol Scout, DH2 (I think not, I want a quick build lol)
SE5a Roden, Fokker DVII that I have parts on order (PE and decals) and of course the Dolphin but should I build the CSM resin or the new guy that is getting all the praise.

Honestly though like many, I am procrastinating and can't decide, probably should do a quick build.

I'd go Eduard Fokker. Fairly simple, fun build.

By the way, this is my attic. I'm having a harder time choosing.

I too vote for the Macchi, she is a beautiful looking bird and we do not see enough of them.

Ok Macchi it is... Found the datafile too and there is a build log here on the home-Page so why not.
Now which one. Dazzle camouflage looks fun, but is it black, blue or red (probably not red).
But that's still a decision in the future

Sound investment, they go for silly money on EBay these days as - after going OOP - they are like rocking horse pooh.

I sell one every once in a while, use the funds to get some more WWI subjects.
