The forum received a whopping 2,345,026 views in May. Unfortunately, Dave pointed out that the source was more than likely bots from the Google site in Columbus Ohio. Five models were submitted:

Gordon - 1/48 Bell XP-77



Jim - 1/72 Rumpler C-IV



Lou - 1/32 Freightliner Century - 1/32 Avro 504K - Toy scale Deborah Brigantine

   


The bots failed to visit the gallery, however, we still received 12,307 views which is a slight increase over the previous month. Our current gallery total is 4,507,417 views.

On my workbench:

1/72 Armstrong-Whitworth FK 8.

[lastvautour]

Have you changed over to 1/72 for two seaters?

Lou

[Jim]

Yes, kinda. They'd just be too big for my display cases otherwise.

[lastvautour]

That is the main reason I do 1/72.

Lou

My two WWI aircraft were built in 2010. Note no rigging, a situation I plan on rectifying with my Albacore.
