                        Build log of this kit. I got the kit from my wife for my birthday. She knows me well Smile

                        Box Art

                        Only two trees but there well populated. Cast in red... ugh...

                        Some attention given to detail in the cockpit. See the later instruction images for more.

                        Decal set. Sparse but probably just enough.

                        This pane shows the cockpit detail already assembled to be sandwiched tween the fuse halves.

                        Painting / Decal illustrations.

                        Color Chart, I put this here for myself as much as everyone else. Its pretty legible so I can peek at it anywhere Smile

                        Oh, wow!  Another bi-plane.  This is great, I'll be watching your progress as always my friend.

                        Tri plane Wink

                         Not a whole lot of progress last night I did get them primed. Took about 3 coats of primer to tone down the red plastic. Its still not completely covered but since it is going to be painted red / yellow I don't think it will matter.

                        Wow, that is some bright plastic. It'll be interesting to see you progress through this build. I can't imagine working on something that small. I have a 1/48 kit of this plane, and even it seems small to me!

                        I just bought this kit online. It should be here in a week or so. I'll be watching your build for tips. I've never built a plane model and 72nd scale looks to be a challenge.

                        Lots of early era birds popping up around here lately. Looking foward to seeing this kit come together is something other than all red.
