Unfortunately I don't have a W4 Albatros, so I can't add to the game but adding a few seaplanes to the fleet is on the 'to do' list.


exactly my thought!

I love this game! It gives a chance to see many fine models.

Well, I have a Roden's W.4 but I am not too proud of it. It is one of my first WW1 models, with self printed decals which I better not mention any more. Anyway, here it is




And here is Toko's SSW D.IV

Fabulous stuff, guys!  Yes, Michael, you did surprise me.  I had forgotten your earlier endeavors.  Brilliant W.4.  So glad you were able to participate.  Proud of you, buddy.
Cheers,
Bud

Glad to join in the fun! But, I'm afraid my hand is played out now.....no more surprises unless we count kits still in the box.

Thanks for the kind words on the W.4 guys. I look forward to getting back to it and applying what I've learned on the Pup.

Some great builds in this thread!

Cheers,
Michael

Someone has to re-start this, so here's my SSW D.IV. Not one of my best models but it gets the game going again.


And now my "plane in a day" Revell S.E.5a.

Hey guys.....those are some fine looking builds! Man, I love that Nieuport 28 in the American livery....it was always my favorite of the old 1/72 Revell kits back in the 60s.

Cheers from NYC,
Michael

I'm afraid there is nothing that can be done for my slap-head, Michael! But every cloud has a silvery lining - think of the money I'm saving on shampoo! Less hair means more plastic! Bingo!!

Got to say that these more recent models are absolutely first rate. I do not have a Nieuport 28 so cannot join in, but I am enjoying looking at the efforts of others.

Hope to join this game soon, brilliant idea!

Great models, Lance and Squiffy!  I love this game!  So glad to see it's return.  Thanks, Squiff!
Lance, I'll see your Nieuport 28 with a very old one of mine...


 And raise you an Albatros D.II.

Cheers,
Bud

Wow, Bud! These are both beauts but that Albatros is spectacular.

This takes me back to the days when you and I were first I touch. It was the inspiration of your builds that got me back into my first model building love, WWI Aero, that I left so long ago.

You guys keep 'em coming!
