Yes Terri, my vehicle collection is starting to build, but I still have 36 un-started Wingnut kits in my stash along with at least a dozen other brand aircraft kits, I will need to live to be at least 150 to build them all  ???

Des, if there is someone who can manage that, you are the one. At least, you have to life 40 more years, because I am now 40 and with some luck I get an other 40, so it is your duty ensure, that we can post here in the future  ;)

The box is full of resin goodies

and a poster, a certificate and a usual thank-you-card from Richard.




Decals, PE and instructions as still to follow but I assure you, there is a lot of to admire already. Thank you Richard for making our long dreamt dreams come true!!!

Arrived today, book on Modelling WW1 tanks. The book has 127 pages and is full of extremely useful information on building and painting the tanks, it also has a section on dioramas. Quite a few tank kits are covered with extremely good building and painting techniques, in my opinion this is a must have for any WW1 tank builder and apart from the archive photos the book is full colour.

Will become either Näther, or Udet; leaning towards the latter because of the lozenge wings, added generator and streamers... although the design and printing of Näthers flag is incredible, almost too good not to use. But with only one Albatros kit, I will have to choose! :)

Okay , I don't want you guys too think that I have left the dark side and not getting anything new in WW 1 aircraft .

These arrived today in the mail at work for me . I was surprised that it was a package from CSM . Was expecting it to be my Hannant's order . Either way though I was smiling all day ! Thanks Edgar !

Nice stuff, I like the Caudron! :)

Thanks to this book: http://forum.ww1aircraftmodels.com/index.php?topic=7893.0 I ordered a WNW DFW C.V mid-production. If I saw correctly it also contains all parts for a late version. Now I need to figure out how to make masks or print my own decals to make a model of one of the interned aircraft...
