Model Airways 1/16th Scale Albatros D.Va (Slow Build)

[Grant]

Sorry for the long absence,  was sick with covid for sometime but im on the up swing now an feeling stronger each day. As far as this build goes im going to put it on my "to do later list" just not up to it. I haven't built a plastic kit in 20 years so I think all jump back into this aspect of model building, something a little more relaxing.


Anyway, just wanted to give you an update.

Grant, I'm so sorry to hear of your recent illness but very glad to hear you're well on the mend. Welcome back!

I know the feeling of jumping into a big exciting project only to become disheartened that my skills weren't up to the task. I know you'll be be back on this in due time, and I'm excited to see what builds you share with us in the meantime

Good to hear your recovering from your covid infection. And sometimes the best decision is to let something rest until you feel like it again. We'll be here waiting.

Got exactly the same feeling about this kit when I bought it. Studied the plans and started thinking "99% of this stuff will have to be scratchbuilt" - And put it into long-term storage. Plus, in my example, both the engine block and the oil sump were badly warped.

   Good decision to take a break Grant, and glad to hear you've recovered from the dreaded COVID. Enjoy a plastic Kit or two and return to this project when the "fun" is back!
All the "Very best"!
