New Project for 2018

[GAJouette]

 Jeff,
Thank you for your kindly remarks my friend. The project isn't quite dead yet just moving along at a snail's pace. I've been working on the rib tapes but problems with my motor skills are making it very difficult to do. I spend way more time correcting my mistakes than anything else. I'll post photographs as soon as I finish the tapes.
Highest Regards,
Gregory Jouette

Keep up the great work Greg; there is no rush and it's wonderful that you are still "at it" after your minor set back. It's a great project and going well, I'll look forward to the next update, "my old friend"!
Cheers,
Lance

 Hello All,
Well it about time for an update again. First off I'd like to publicly thank Richard Andrews of Aviattic for his support and supplying his PE Rib Tapes for this project. These tapes are an outstanding product and well worth it.









  Great product fellas and not too difficult to use. In my case I fond them easy to use,that is on days when my hands weren't shaking too badly. I have the decal version of ribtapes from Aviattic for the next 1/32 project.
  On with the update.

  Giuseppe,
Thank you,your comment are very much appreciated my old friend. I quite happy with the PE rib tapes and look forward to seeing them under a little paint. The tapes aren't that difficult to apply and do add much in the way of additional detail. One thing for certain they do bring Roden's wings details much closer to a WNW example.
Highest Regards,

The engine, and particularly the ignition wires, look very convincing.

Gregory, I'm coming up for air now that my Albatros is "just that close" to completion. I saw this build of yours in the "Construction" mix and jumped all over it. A super job so far, my friend: reshaped wings, cut out pulley accesses, PE rib tapes, excellent paintwork...you are a modelling machine!

Best of luck with your build, Gregory, and I will visit often to watch your excellent methods. Cheers! 

[GAJouette]

 Ed and Gary,
Many thanks fella's.Your comments are much appreciated.

@ Gary: Good to hear from you my old friend. I've been watching your Albatros D.V thread,she's just awesome! So Gary just between you and I. Will we soon be following a 1/32 scale Lanc thread from your talented bench.
Highest Regards,
Gregory Jouette

Gregory, this is a fantastic build, I am glad you re-started it, the PE rib tapes are awesome, how du you glue PE to plastic by the way?
I use CA glue but often the PE details come off ...
