Rick,

The Salmson is looking mighty sweet. Can't wait to see it completed!

Mike

Thanks Mike, The upper wing is now mounted permanently on the Salmson. Once the rudder is painted/ decalled, I will take some more photos. Then the rigging will begin on the Pfalz, and ultimately the Salmson. I have also cleaned up the Aviattic figures and will begin to paint them soon, or so I hope  ::)

Rick,
Man what a lovely pair my old friend. I've been taking note for my own Salmson someday. Looking forward to more.
Highest Regards,
Gregory Jouette

Thanks Gregory, Always appreciate your comments!

Two Jewels Rick, great modeling and painting my friend!

Patrick my friend, I appreciate your comments. I am still wondering what you and Ernie are cooking up  8)

Hello Rick!!!!

What a great piece of modelling ;) Looks like you are not far from finish either ;)

Both are shaping up magnificently, Amigo!  You've got a pair of show stoppers in the works.
Cheers,

Thanks Lukas. As for the finish line the Pfalz will get its first rigging soon. The Salmson is close to that stage but still requires some work beforehand.

Rick, my friend, your birds are absolutely terrific!  It really doesn't get
much better than what you have accomplished.  I look forward to
seeing them as the rigging progresses. :D

Cheers,
Ernie :)

I have posted these photos again in an edited form. I had to go to Flickr as my Photo Bucket account I pay for will not allow me to Edit. Says I need to turn of a Pop Up Blocker on my Browser? Better now but shows more of my glitches  :-[

Two models to be proud off Rick my friend. Tremendous accomplishment. Amazing how you can combine two such different builds. Well done!!
