Haha, thanks Rick. You know, in a certain sort of light if I take my glasses off it looks pretty good to me too!

I started with Revell 1/72. I still believe that their first six aircraft were the best.  Fokker D.VII, Albatros D.III, Sopwith Camel, SE5A, Nieuport 17 and SPAD XIII. The latter six introduced in about 1966 seemed to have quite a few errors. Still they were good for the time. I also had the Airfix kits some of which were sold under the MPC label. I still have some of these kits in my stash. I recently finished a Revell Fokker D.VII and Albatros D.III. I am currently working on a Revell Sopwith Triplane along side the new Kovozavody Prostejov  Sopwith Triplane.

What's New / Re: New 1/72 Rumpler C.IV kit

I wonder what research Print Scale did for their pricing decision.  I just purchased a Choroszy Modelbud resin Rumpler C.1 for just under $20 US.  $68 US seems way too expensive. I just don't see this selling well unless the price is adjusted.

I have the same memory problem sometimes. These posts serve more than one purpose! Nicely done once the memory had been jogged!

Looking good to MY Eyes Richie. Especially considering how much larger that photo is than the actual item. Once inside the pit and all closed up it will look excellent!
