 Rick,
As always my old friend,OUTSTANDING paintwork. Did you use the WNW paint call outs? Whatever the case they look spot on IMHO. Well Done!
Highest Regards,

Thanks for your kind comments Gregory, they are appreciated! The colors are as WNW calls out. I used the Tamiya versions as I had them in stock!

Thanks James. If I could take photos like you do I would flood the pages with "Pretty Pictures".  ;D

So gorgeous, Rick!  I'm a bit intimidated by the French 5 color camo, but you sure have a handle on it.  Brilliant work, Amigo!
Cheers,
Bud

Rick,
Great job on both projects. I have the Salmson in the stash. One of these days I'll get to it-but as a solo build. One at a time is about all I can handle. Looking forward to your next update!

Thanks Bud. That being said I have seen you do Scrumble camo over Lozenge and similar schemes. Much more intimidating in my view   ???

Thanks again Geaorge, Nice to have you following my builds!
RAGIII

Martin, another thanks again to you for the same reasons!

Rob, the thing about my dual builds is they take twice as long as building one individual kit. It just gives me time while one is drying or I hit a stall out point to work on the other.

That makes perfect sense! As is stands now for me, I do a few steps then I have to wait while paint or glue dries. And like you say, you stall out sometimes. With more than one kit in the works I could be building more steadily with less waiting.

Cool! If an airliner ever loses a bag of cash in my garden, the Salmson is next on my wishlist! :)

Thanks for commenting! You will love the Salmson, a very well engineered kit even if the cowl panels are a little tricky, at least they were for me  ::)
