Thank you for sharing these Rick! A delightful bunch of models but I have to say the Dreideckers are real standouts for me.

I was super confused as I know the pilot's name and was second-guessing myself that it was Mengdenstein  ;D

That's a fantastic haul for the year Rick. All finished to such a high standard that I just can't pick a favourite. You must be very pleased with the year's work.

Thanks To All for the comments! I just remembered that I also finished one figure in 2021  ;D

German Pilot ( Boelcke) from the Encore Albatros DII. The Head was changed to make it a generic pilot using a Head from Manta Figurines:

What a fine harvest 2021, Rick. I assume you have a huge house with lots of exhibition space ;)

Very impressive, Rick. Every bird is more eye-catching than the other. Lovely.

Quite a collection for one year.  They are all expertly done.  It must make an impressive display.
I'm lucky to finish half this number of models.

Good year's output, Rick. I'm glad you changed the head on that figure; the original always makes me think of Herman Munster, not Boelcke...

Which one of those triplanes was in the True Scale Rick? I simply could not tell from the photos as they are all incredibly impressive. As for quantity over quality I think that others should be allowed to judge - I know what my opinion would be.
