I'd love to be able to take it outside, but it's in my basement, and this thing is pretty big to carry up the stairs.

really nice--and I agree, tell us more about the project and let's see some more shots, like closeups of the guns and cockpit!

No, it's not scratchbuilt, and now that it's reduced to $300, it's pretty reasonable. Here's a link if you missed it on the other post:
http://www.frontgate.com/jump.jsp?itemType=PRODUCT&itemID=18945&fromNewSearch=true&mercadoResultId=0&nrpAltSearch=false&altText=null I'll take some more shots, with some different angles. I'll get a shot of the cockpit too. |

will a 1/6 fit inside???

a full body will not fit because there's a solid panel below the instrument panel. Mine was a display, so I got it fully assembled. It looks like it could
be cut out to allow a full body to fit, I'll probably display mine with a torso only. Mark

hey Mark, thanks for putting up the link and the extra photos--I gotta say, I'm really impressed by the detail on the thing, and that it's really close
to true 1:6, as I think a rl Camel is about 18 feet long with a wingspan of about 28 feet. and yes, I agree that 300 ain't bad at all for what it is. The
Spad and the Fokker look pretty good too
