| You can get a good idea of the scale from this picture. |

| The instrument was a Williams Brothers set that was close in scale, I built the brass hanger from card stock. the cockpit combing is wire insulation. |

| I love the colors of the 94th, Polly Scale paints are great, they dry quickly and do not sag tissue. I sprayed a clear enamel over everything after the decals were pressed on I probably had 3 coats of dope diluted 2:1 thinner to dope to get it tight initially. |

| The Vickers were made out of some copper tubing I had, I jacketed it with strip plastic and then the receivers are wood and card stock. |

| The hardest part about building this was the rigging, my eyes are not what they used to be!! I used to work in 1/72 scale now I have gone to 1/16!! |

| This was a pre-1970's kit covered in light silk and dope, and then hand painted with polly scale acrylics and a semigloss coat. Callie Graphics provided the decals. The instrument was an old Williams Brothers set. The machine guns were metal tubiing, paper and wood. The seat was hand woven card stock to simulate the basket weave seat. I hope you all like it. |

| Great I was wondering how their kits were, they sound pretty good. Thanks for the tip, I just posted the plans for the D-III I am looking at doing from the Guillows Series. |
