They know, it's just they don't want you to question how much they spend at the hairdresser, on shoes or on handbags!

Adam, I would be interested in a report on the prop spraying template. I have one of his "wood grain" templates, and having used it only once, I find that the resulting "pattern" seems rather large even in 32nd scale.

Maybe I can offer some help also Will. I used the prop template on my Fokker DVII here http://forum.ww1aircraftmodels.com/index.php?topic=3477.msg63216#msg63216
This is the first time and also the first time I didnt use oil paints, just acrylics. I think I need more practice, but my initial thoughts are that it looks okay. I found it was kind of a pain to try and set up and hold, but as I use it more maybe I'll figure that out. You have to thin the paints and make sure you spray straight on. Then you have to remove the template and set up again for the other side. Hope that helps some.

Rick, Congrats on the Anniversary and the "gifts".

Bertl, If I were only your age my WNW stash might well approach yours.

You have just purchased the best kit (IMHO) Wingnuts have produced Bob, like Lance said, you will not regret owning and building this brilliant kit.

Great minds think alike, Bob!  I recently bought a WNW Biff for the same reason.  That and Des' glowing recommendation.   :)
