My winter projects started with this de Havilland Heron which has sixteen individually carved balsa blocks for the engine nacelles alone ! the project is scratch built from a 1/72nd three view drawn onto cereal box card,no polans just scale up as I went along with my trusty old school compasses,500 hours gone into her so far.
Checking in to say I am fine and happy building.
Barry.

And the Rapide that was built just prior to the Heron.

I would assume these are R/C Barry? they look great. RC is what I have been doing for the last few years and haven't found much time for solid making, although you seem to have merged the two nicely!
