Show us your Salmson 2A2
« on: December 02, 2016, 10:50:04 PM »
I thought I had done this one already but after looking 3 times I do not see this topic. So here is my WNW Salmson. I hope this will inspire others who have posted awesome Salmson builds to add theirs along with a link to their build logs:

Excellent idea, this is one great looking plane that deserves more build, so hopefully we will see some soon!
Rick, thats one smashing Salmson in the original camo :)

I will add few pictures of the Japanise version, this is the 1/48 Gaspatch model:

Nice pair of Salmsons Guys. Nice to see them "up in the lights"; the aircraft and this Model don't get the attention they deserve. I really enjoy the "Show Us Your (subject)" theme, it really highlights the Builds and provides great variety and comparisons.
Great work!
Cheers,
Lance

Thanks on my part for the comments guys! Ssasho,
Your beautiful Post WW1 Japaneese Salmson was indeed one of the models I was hoping to see posted. There are still several I hope to see added.

The third amigo is in total agreement!  I have both these kits in my stash and plan a dual build if I can ever get my bench clear enough to handle both.
Cheers,
