under wing edging
« on: April 27, 2012, 10:42:57 PM »
Hello;
I am building the WNWs Sopwith Pup and am wondering the width of the under wing edging is.(where the OD green overlaps the underside of the wing).

  LOL But you know some IMPS judge likely would do just that. :-X   Of coarse this is right after he breaks out the FS Color fan to argue your choice of a certain shade of PC 10. But no I'm not bitter. ;)

  Steve,
LOL great come back my friend. Actually that "I'm not bitter" was a tongue in cheek comment ,but the other remarks certainly do illustrate how a few IPMS judges behave. How else would they earn those niffty nicknames such as Color Nazi's.

Not that I enter too much any more but I used to think the same thing. Then one day I figured "Well I came to play the game with your rules so I will just suck it up" If the judge knows what he is actually talking about...........
