The other night I picked up a book at the used book store.It is "Under the Guns of The Red Baron".it has all of his victories listed.Each combat has his combat report but focuses on the victim.It tells their biography and covers the events leading to their encounters with Richtoven.Included are paintings and photos with time lines and charts.

Hi Des,
 Nice collection of goodies  ;)

Where do you buy your drill bits from? I had this style of drill bit, but in 0.3 and now I need to restock!
Cheers,
Bob

Hi Bob,

I got the drill bits off ebay, here is the link to the drills.

http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/270749318808?ssPageName=STRK:null:IT

obviously this is Australian ebay but it will give you the sellers details, he has all the different sizes.

    Arrived yesterday from Sprue Bros.





   One of my favorite (based on appearance only!) Aircraft of the Great War in the air. Now I have the kit, the decals, and, HMMM, when will I find the time!? I'll need some to choose which scheme to go with but I'm leaning towards the Roosevelt bird.  :-\This latest addition to the Stash assessed as the fault of Dal Gavan, curse the modelling devil!  ::)Nice "Noop" Dal.
Cheers,
Lance

I missed this post.  FUN!  Last night I got a new selection of cyanoacrylate glue.  I've not modeled in so long that all but my super thin cyan has turned solid.  The super thin is now just thin.  A few days ago the postman brought me this-
OH BOY!
