What scale did you build it in? it looks almost real.

I heard that it all started when a bloke called Archie Duke shot an ostrich 'cause he was hungry!

Hello! Just to let you know, I'm still at it. I haven't flaked on this build. ??? :)

I've been working mainly on the Photo Etched parts. I've built them all in 3D then transferred them to a 2D file to send out for etching.

Here are some pics of all the brackets, control horns, seat, fuel tank, etc. that will soon be PE parts.










The 2D Illustrator file:




Here are a few pics of the skids. I finally got around to the parts that make this model a part of the Group Build. :D






I've finished the frame of the upper and lower wings and ailerons, tail feathers, and sides of the fuse (On the real model, not just the virtual model). Now I'm on hold until I get the PE back from Scotland. I'm chomping at the bit to get back to some real world modeling on this! ;D

Cheers,
George

Thanks Von B and Michael! :)

Hopefully, I'll get back to the D.VII soon enough. When I started it last November they were all the rage here on the forum, but they seem to have gone out of fashion a bit. ;) ;D

Never mind the fashion - who cares anyway? - that is wonderful stuff. This is a truly amazing build - makes scratch building look positively simple by comparison. I wondered where this one had gone - so pleased to see that you will be back at it shortly.

Thanks Stephen, Bud, and Martin!

Bud, I really appreciate your joke, but did you have to make me look at Michael's bare legs again? :o ;D ;D

Michael, if these PE parts actually work as planned then I think I can make them available.
