Re: Monogram 1/48 Sopwith Camel
Lol! Hey dude! Yeah, it's little old me again. Man, I guess I've been flying under the radar for a while, just been too lazy to do anything much. But, I've just finished one model, and have another that's oh so close (if I can just keep from screwing it up ) to completion and two others well underway. Whew! That keeps an old man busy, not to mention all the chores that need doing out on our ranch, Brokenoak. Now, the Texas summer has started in earnest and I plan to get some model work done when it's too damned hot outside. Here, we say a little prayer of thanks to Willis Carrier! Bless his soul; he made life bearable in the Southwest!
I plan on getting some photos done soon of my Tamiya Meteor Prototype Number One and will be showing it here before too long. The Tigercat can't be far behind!

Thanks Carlos, and you're very welcome as well! Getting a biplane finished to the level of yours is no small achievement sir. I've only tried it twice, with varying levels of success so I know how happy you have to be with that one.

Re: Monogram 1/48 Sopwith Camel
Yeah, after decades of building WWII thru today, a biplane build is a rarity for me too. And this one makes biplane completion number two for me in the years since the Carter administration…

Thank you Tony. Yes a biplane is quite a change up for me, and it was fun to do just that!
