Do you happen to know what issue it was in? I have quite a few of the old Airfix magazines, and it would be a lot quicker than going thru them all.

All it says is " 6 mil Ceramic Rigging Fiber". When I call to order some, they know right away what I'm talking about.

Fort Duquesne Military Miniatures). These are the folks who, with help from Steve Hustad, have apparently produced the definitive 1/72 scale resin Fokker Dr.I recently lauded in Windsock. Has anyone seen it? Is there a web site? E-mail address? I was thinking of picking up a stack of Revells, but after seeing the photo of this kit's resin pieces in Windsock, it would definately be an easier kit to cobble (no fabric texture to sand!). Thanks, Kevin Barrett. ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 12 Apr 1998 20:34:34 -0500 From: mbittner@juno.com To: wwi Subject: Re: Hawkeye Designs Query Message-ID: <19980412.203434.6398.4.mbittner@juno.com> On Sun, 12 Apr 1998 20:00:58 -0400 kevinkim@interlog.com (Kevin & Kimberley Barrett) writes: >Just wondering if anyone has had any contact with Hawkeye Designs >(a.k.a. >Fort Duquesne Military Miniatures).
