| LASTWOODSMAN | Aero-Werkes DPCM 104 Pfalz DIII | Parked | 17-Feb-17 20:44 |  | | Views : 864 | | My buddy "Bob", who volunteers restoring our "Mosquito" bomber, at the Historic Hanger here in Windsor, just got rid of the coat hanger stand for me using Paint Shop Pro - this is the pic he fixed up in 15 minutes. |
| LASTWOODSMAN | Aero-Werkes DPCM 104 Pfalz DIII | Parked | 17-Feb-17 20:13 |  | | Views : 831 | | Pic of my 16" Pfalz D3 with an eight page composite background picture, that was then scotch taped together, on a 20" X 30" white foam display board, of a large 5,500 X 3,500 pixel file pic, of clouds and sky, converted free on the web, http://www.pdfonline.com/convert-jpg-to-pdf/ (very simple and fast), from a jpeg file to a pdf file, then opened the converted pdf file in Adobe Acrobat reader, and printed in "poster", 41 %, with 0.030" overlap of the pages - printed all eight pages - then all taped together after trimming. Two lamp lights and auto flash were used for this pic at night. Now if I could only learn Paint Shop Pro to get rid of the stand wires ... |

| rayl | Scratch Built Loening OL-8 Amphibian | Reference | 16-Feb-17 14:50 |  | | Views : 5194 | | 14 days to get to this point. Working with foam is something different; very soft and prone to dings. Even from fingernails. Made the Stars & Bars and "slime lights" on my printer. Tail coes are from some vinyl letter sheets and completely bogus. Still awaiting the arrival of the EDF from China. |
