Title: 2020 Solid Model Memories Yearbook
Post by: lastvautour on December 28, 2020, 09:28:19 PM
2020 will feature a 70 page yearbook featuring our projects in a larger format. This approach is undertaken as the image aspects vary to much from members. This makes it impossible to resize to a common aspect suitable for the poster. This new format enable me to add the subject name and scale. Here is the revised version. I would appreciate some comments.

Love the format. Nice work.
Just a couple corrections on the names: It should be Hanriot HD-1, Spad VII, and Pfalz D-IIIa...

Great job with graphics too!
Fun fact Lou, I started SMM in the spring of 2001...  That's 20 years! SMM wouldn't be much without your passion and hard work.
That's a gonna be a BIG PDF my friend....

Lou, this document is FANTASTIC. It is really a catalogue of craftsmanship from all those who contributed. The yearbook style PDF is a great idea as it allows it to be carried on an iphone. When someone says "wooden models?", this will show what is possible!

Great project Lou. thank you for doing this!

Regards,
Fraser

One of the highlights of a New Year is looking back at the successes of the previous year. Especially in light of the the unusual conditions of 2020. Thanks to Lou for putting this together. It places a nice bow around all the excellent craftsmanship of the contributors!! Hopefully folks viewing the document will share it with friends and maybe even become a new member.

Thanks to Ray as well. As a relatively new member, it's been great to not only see the craftsman ship. It's been a wonderful experience reading the "Tips and Tricks" of others.

Happy New Year to all.
