  1. Great review, excellent pics... Those battened double flying wires are going to be an interesting challenge...
  2. Awesome x Awesome.
  3. It's available for $16 dollars and change, in-app purchase in free AFV Modeller App (iOS) (Note: not Air Modeller Magazine app). No shipping Looks great on iPad...
  4. Well it is volume 1 ... And as Dave mentioned, it is still available digitally, really every bit as good as the paper version imo and cheaper too.
  5. aaaaaahhhhhhhh that is what that stuff is for! doh. Not that expensive considering 30" ought to be a lifetime supply?
  6. Jose, thank you. Bertl, as you may know your work was my inspiration to re-enter this hobby with this build 18 months ago. You have given me encouragement from the get go, generously shared bits & knowledge etc and never seemed to resent me following (however oafishly) in your path of "gonzo" modelling. So back at you You are #1.
  7. The trick to drilling tiny holes (for me) is to carefully support the workpiece. Bertl, you are the master. The seat belt latches in the second photo are the epitome of perfection. Easily would pass for a photo of the real thing. I detailed my air pump: blissfully unaware/ignorant of what you had done, I concentrated on the shape of the pump body. I should have spent more time on the bleed valve; mine is a clumsy approximation & hopelessly overscale:
  8. Hi joe, thanks! it's the kit prop painted -- usual technique (colored pencils over painted base).
  9. I thought it was in under construction, too -- but I'm new here. I didn't do it!!!! I have no special powers.
  10. Sincere thanks for the generous comments, everyone. If you would like to peek behind the curtain, you'll find a complete build log here (Warning: 60+ pages, 800+ posts) : http://forum.ww1aircraftmodels.com/index.php?topic=328.0
  11. Most generous of you to say, Ssasho0 -- however Bertl is in an entirely different galaxy, maybe even different universe; I am a mere dilettante compared. But he gives us something to shoot for, eh?
  12. Um, not sure I can explain it exactly, I just kinda go for it. I usually work dark to light, then go back with glazes and stuff.
  13. Hehe, I followed you here Bertl. (I was looking for pictures of your Dr.1 seat & screen ) yes I am maybe the slowest. but wings get covered soon
