1/32 Voisin X scratchbuild

This one has taken way too long to get even to this stage. I think I will redo the wings. Maybe, someday...

Very nice looking Voisin X Kevin, do you have any build photos of this model?  I thoroughly enjoyed scratch building my 1:32 Voisin III.

No wonder we haven't heard from you in so long!  You've be too busy for forums!  Amazing project, buddy.  Please keep at it.  I remember what a phenomenal job you did on your other scratch built projects, especially your Caudron G.4 and your Lohner L,  This one promises to be every bit as fantastic as those two.
Cheers,
Bud

Thanks for the kind words. I plan to start the final part manufacturing.
I found a Unimat lathe that I will use to turn the fuel tanks, and the radiators should be easy, after perusing Des' beautiful V.
