Greetings from Belgium
« on: October 23, 2016, 02:25:22 AM »
Hello too all of you,

I recently stumbled over this forum. My main activity as a modeller is producing some bike and car models. Recently I also started to paint some figures but I'm also fascinated about the WWI plane models.

At the moment I've one kit in my pile, the Gaspatch  Models Salmson 2A2.
Before starting on this one, I'de like to have a look at the site and learn from experiences of other modellers.

Best regards

David

Welcome aboard, David!  I also have the Gaspatch Salmson in my stash and it's a beauty.  To get an idea of what others have experienced with this kit, here are a couple links:
