Hey Michael,

Glad to have another complete amateur. Safety in numbers! You're right, though, this is looking like a great place to take advantage of an incredible wealth of experience.

What are you working on right now?

That's great, Michael. I'd like to do a Nieuport as well, sometime. Maybe a 17. If you can screw up enough courage to post some pictures I'll be forced to post some of mine. I'll show you mine, if you show me yours!

Mine would mostly just be a litany of "why does this look so awful?" ;) Doesn't mean I'm not having a lot of fun, though!

Good luck with the rest of the build.

Welcome aboard Michael. Don't be shy about posting images of your model. It's not that long ago that I started building these stringbags myself and the fellows here are unfailingly helpful.

Cheers,

Chris
