Hristo, I cannot get over that all this wonderful work is in the teeny scale!
I can only admire the awe-inspiring detail, carried on from one model to the
next.  Just superb.

Cheers,
Ernie :)

I just love your attention to details in the cockpits, like stick control cables, copper surronding around the tachometer, wood effet...Really impressive when you know how small all this is.

Absolutely amazing what you have achieved in God's Own Scale and x4 too! I have said that I will build an Airfix Albatross for a group build on another forum in August - September this year, but I could not hope to produce the amount of intricate detail that is in your models. This will be an inspiration for me and I will use this thread to help me when I do start that project. Brilliant work.

Unbelievable work in this scale.
Thankfully I have no desire to add that kind of detail myself - if I did I might just quit now! VERY impressive!

Hello to all
Thanks for the kind words.
I'm glad that my project remains interested in you.
Many of the details will disappear as assemble the fuselage, but it does not bother me to do them.
However, the most important thing is to bring pleasure of hobby.

Best Regards
Hristo

Yeah, Terri, good point on the consistency -- that's not easy to do in any scale.

Hello everyone,
I decided to present a diorama with action at Hangar 2. For this purpose I began to collect information on the building of the photos that I found. However, they noticed that some of the hangar is wearing some kind of material, much like canvas or perhaps sheet metal (probably lead). It comes to the front facade. The side walls are also implemented as, if similar material, but may be of wood siding. Photographs taken later showed that at the end of 1917 the building was completed in this way. For I delivered period, however, this method is partially used. For comparison Hangar 3 is made entirely above said manner.
I would like to ask you for more information if you know what exactly used in the construction of Hangar 2?
Thank you in advance.

This is a picture of the hangar from the spring of 1917:


These are pictures of the hangar in the summer of 1917:




And these are from the end of 1917:



Best Regards
Hristo
