Thanks for posting this one! Where has this video been taken? I guess the States?

Don't know Thomas. I am building an Me 262 for the GB and just ran across it. Some good footage though.

For anyone building the Me 262 here is a cool video on YouTube of close up shots all around the engine. This might help detailing your engine.

Thanks All, It was a refreshing change of pace from WW2 subjects. Really love this WW1 stuff now. And  I am really looking forward to the Great War GB. Haven't picked my subjects yet but since we have over a year to decide............what will it be?

 

Jeroen, yes it was EZ-Line. Nice stuff to work with but expensive.

Better late than never. Had to finish my D.H. 9 first. So, here it is, my entry into the Me GB. Trumpeters 1/32 Swallow. This will not be the clear version.

And a picture of her during the war.

 

 

 

I hope I can do this by the end of June. The way work has been going, I'm not so sure.

Thanks Jeroen,

They were in my spam folder. Never thought to look there. But since all is well, it doesn't matter. So, yeah, watch your spam folder everyone.

Here is my finished D.H.9a in US Marine colors. A plane from this
unit received the first US Marine Medal of Honor. Here she is. I am not
quite happy with the outcome of the colors, a tad too yellow in my
opinion. But there is no going back. I almost wish I had stayed with the
kit colors.. She is built out of box other than the Bob's Buckles for
the rigging. Oh yeah, the
rigging...............................................LOL.

 

This
was many firsts for me. First WW1, first biplane, hence my first
rigging job. Oh yeah, the
rigging.........................................

 

The picture I went by.

 

Here she is as built.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

So, I hope you like her. Some disappointments but overall a really god experience.

[Ship modelling question]

I see the section for the ship GB. Is this still a go considering the new path this forum is going down? I think ships should be an integral part of a Large Scale Modeller forum. They are the biggest models out there. I am a ship builder and would love to have the forum be a place to build and discuss those kits we choose to build. Is aircraft and armor the only subjects to be allowed here?

Nope, no problems but since there is a need for confirmation, I presume, you might want to check that out. Let's keep the spammers out, LOL.

I have not received my confirmation email and it has been over an hour. Maybe that many people are signing up but can someone check this out?
