| Fantastic touch. Looks like someone found a old photo while doing a family tree search. |

| Just beautiful. But I'll send you a bucket of "prop wash"
for the prop. :-) |

| A lovely machine.Hope to bulid one soon. I've got three planes covered in krylon ready for colour but i'm unsure how to finish with my airbrush and enamels.
Do I use a primer?
Do I fill and sand between coats?
I am hoping to fly them onced finished.
Help Please!!! |

| Improvisation. Worked wonders here, looks grand. |

| The stars are decals trimmed close, with enamel painted background. The stars are kit decals trimmed close, then nipped in the inside corners so they will lay flat.
The cowl extensions are made from a large 32 oz cup from Taco bell. The material is a terrific thickness to work with, very thin (thinner or as thin as the Guillows vacuum form, and has a built in bias to it that made forming it ideal). It took to paint very well with a very light sanding. Free and good, you can't beat that! |

| Nice job ...looks real! |

| I'm sorry, I meant Lewis :-). I like the pilot's scarf and those wheels, are they decals? Or did you paint the stars? |

| Very nice plane with all the details like the rigging, prop and pilot. I would suggest leaving the Lewis gun off. I believe that Scout's were either unarmed or equipped with a Martin 30 cal (which looked quite different). |

| That's the Lewis, I havent figures out how or if to mount it |

| Very nice BB. SW, I may be wrong but that looks like the Lewis gun that Guillows also supply with their SE5a kit. |

| BB that's a beauty, also. Is that a Spandau laying there? Did you make it or is it plastic. It looks like plastic. |

Rattle can for the win! |

Straying from the stock color scheme, forgive the store bought prop, I'm re-entering the field after a 30 yr layoff :P |

| I did the fuselage in just two pieces of med silkspan. I think it turned out reasonably well. |
