Found this site, looks fun!
« on: November 13, 2014, 03:47:43 PM »
   I'm slowly getting back into modeling.  It seems I only model world war one airplanes, my last one way back in 2005.  It was a scratcbuilt DH-10.   I am really fascinated by large scale rc models using FPV.  Perhaps that is one way of fulfilling a dream of flying a  N17, just "scaled" down a bit.   It appears the hobby has progressed a bit since I last looked.

Welcome aboard, Candice!  So glad you finally found us.  I remember your marvelous DH-10 and your gorgeous Pfalz Dr.1.  Your work inspired me when I first got back into modeling.  Please post photos of these beautiful models.  Folks, this lady is a true artist.
Cheers,
Bud

Welcome Candice, Glad you found us! I too remember you from the list. Do you still have your 1 to 1 Nieuport under construction?
You were about ready to leave the list when I joined. I remember your DH10 and others. Would love to see you post them here in the Completed Models section!

it is nice to see some familiar names here.   I haven't built anything since the DH-10 back in 05' and now just getting a work area set  up so I can relax.  My attempt at a full scale N17 didn't work out so well, so I need to "scale down" a bit.  ;)  I still have a huge stash of kits, I just need some inspiration to strike me.  Unfortunately I don't have any pics of any models I have buit,  however the kit review site on MM still has some of my stuff.  My favorite was always my "Recon" Nieuport. 

ANyway....thanks for the warm welcome.

Candice
