Hi Rowan - any news on the 1:32 scale Gotha decals, it will be interesting to see what you are going to release.

Hi Rowan,
    Hope your relatively silent profile is due to the workload imposed by whipping up new sheets for the WNW DH2, Fokker Monoplanes, and the apparently pending DVII!?
    If Lanoe Hawker were included in your efforts what a wonderful Christmas it would be! ;)
Cheers,
Lance

Hello Lance,

 My DH2 is on its way at the moment and I have plans for a set for the DH2 that would of course include Lanoe Hawker (I read his brother Tyrrel's biography Hawker VC the year it was published and have had a very high regard for the man ever since), Jimmy McCudden and others as well as a selection of marking alternatives for the FE2b in a "Pushers" decal set. I have a number of previously announced sets to get out first.... Christmas? Possibly!

For the Fokker DVII, I have so far 170+ profiles/decals prepared - it just will depend on what WNW have in mind for the kits and how the various sub-contractors and their variations are kitted.

Thanks for the detailed reply Rowan. Most impressive, you'll hear from me very quickly once you confirm the pending/availability status of several of these. The DVII "menu" sounds fascinating, 170+!??!?
 I was "hard over" on Hawker's D2 for the inevitable WNW Kit however JTB McCudden is a great hero of mine. Hmmmmmmm.
Keep those updates coming.
Cheers,
Lance

So,

Between what WNW makes for the decals and yours, I have to buy at least 200+ of those kits............

maybe if I just sell the house....

I already had the DV and DVa, got another Va, and am now "twitching" about ordering another V. And then there's the latest two WNW releases with the DVII "on short final". I'm not sure selling the house would cover me!

Hello Des

These are with the printers and should be done in the next few weeks.

These are the five options:



I'm aiming to have these available with the RE8s in November....

Sorry Steve - missed your original post....

I'm finalising the decal designs now for Vols 3 & 4 -  a little late I'm afraid but am hoping to have them available next month - the aim is for the UK nationals at Telford on 10th and 11th - we'll see!

Hi, Rowan,

Our invasion of the Eastern Med was quite successful, and we have just last night returned home for "medals and tea!" No date yet, I take it, on the "Captured" sheet? No worries: lots of styrene here to play with while I wait!

Best to you and Sabine!

Hello Gary,

Glad you made it back from the front unscathed. Mother-in-law is currently "en Turkie" (she did Canada last year - is she chasing you??.... you know how tenacious French ladies "of a certain age" can be.....). Any holiday snaps? We're giving the show in Hyères a miss, due to the weather, so are still in Brittany - in the rain!

I expect the Captured decals any day now. I've just received the Christiansen WB29 and the first part of the Gotha GIV decals and the Captured ones were on the same job so in the next few days all being well - will be in touch.
