Eduard 1/72 (!) Spad XIII

[Gisbod]

Thanks Ian & Warren,

I suddenly realised that I wasn't happy with the rigging after I'd finished it so I scrapped it.. took the top wing off and cut all the rigging off. Re - rigged again with the 0.06mm (probably too thin and wispy) but definitely better. However, disaster struck just as I was finishing off... my dremel drill toppled over and has smashed pretty much all of it 

I've just walked away from it. Probably too far gone, but I'll go and have a look in the morning when I've calmed down...

Ho hum...

Ps I've been sent the new Eduard 1/48th duo of the Spad & D.VII by the magazine. So one of those will be up next although I'll definitely be revisiting 1/72nd again soon. Really enjoyed it...

Ouch!
Sorry to hear that...but glad to see you'll be returning to 1:72

Guy,
       I have a few of these kits in the stash. You want me to send you one to replace this one. I am saddened this happened, but . . . .

On a curious note, I never get consistent notifications about this thread and some others, but get notifications about others consistently.

Weird.

Thanks chaps,

Warren, that's very kind of you, but I'll have to have a think about revisiting this so soon....

Thanks for looking in though.

   That's a shame Guy, she was looking really nice. You've had a bad several months, first the big SE and now this twist if misfortune. A relaxing "Review" type Build might just be what you need to get back to normal, good luck with the Duo Build!
Cheers,
Lance

I certainly can feel your pain having suffered two similar disasters in the last year or so. It is a real shame as your SPAD was turning out beautifully!
