On my workbench:
1/72 Armstrong-Whitworth FK 8.
Have you changed over to 1/72 for two seaters?
Lou
Yes, kinda. They'd just be too big for my display cases otherwise.
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.
Battle is proceeding slowly.
Space and time being taken up with RC model for my son and a waterline model of HMAS Sydney (II) for
