It is not a converted anything. It is new. Look on the images and models section of pease1, under Lee Mensinger photos, and you will see a couple photos I have been taking more and they will be sent to Allan soon. Not even processed yet. Free. I have direct access to a 1:1 thoroughly researched E-V, complete with name plate and a no barrel machine gun. They are one gun short at the moment. What part of the plane were you wondering about? It will be available for a while yet. It is a replica being made by Vintage Aviation Services for a museum. Roger Freeman runs the enterprise and is also the President of the Vintage Aviation Historical Foundation, (504 c3 non profit Org.) presently located in Marion, Texas At present I am about to start scanning the construction photos of a Nieport 28c to send in for consideration. E-V comes a bit later... I really want to get there to take some outdoor photos. I already have 8 rolls available at the GO signal. Lee roguerpj wrote: > Are you saying you have access to a real E-V?

Some things naturally fall out well in plastic, others in wood and metal. For instance a pair of spats for a tween wars plane would be natural in styrene, wood would need to be hollowed out and my metal beating skills aren't up to making them from alloy. Moulding them from plastic around a woooden former is easy. Likewise applying a plastic sheet skin to a solid wooden core to represent a covered wing is still the most convincing way of representing fabric over ribs. It has one great advantage in that there is no grain to fill before painting. OTOH if there is a lot of natural wood to show then using wood saves a lot of awkward fidding around with paint. Where props or floats are concerned I like pear or selected lumps of cherry, and nothing beats bamboo for struts, ply areas can be done with 1/64th birch ply chosen to find a bit with a nice tight grain pattern. Flying boat hullls can built up very much like a plank on frame model, but only the visible frames are done to scale - bulkheads give strength on what would otherwise be a rather light and fragile construction. Apart from the lightweight framing these hulls were built very much like a yacht, with mahogany planks fixed with brass screws and varnished. Attempting to represent that effect in styrene and paint seems like a short way to ensure an early visit from the men in white coats. Doing in cherry wood with what seemed like thousands of little brass wire fixings was easier, but I still haven't fully recovered from the experience. But I do like working in wood - there's a different feel to it. Plastic has a consistency in the way it works whereas wood can sometimes be cussed and will fight you or at other times the shape just seems to fall out of the board without the need for any intervention on your part.

If you can follow these instructions you should receive an answer in less than thirty minutes.  The response is automated and the computer will reply.  That is why you can not send all this other stuff.  You will be talking to a machine.

Sorry I can not do it for you because the computer replys directly to the address of the sender of the message.   Lee    lemen@wireweb.net

Why? Message-ID: <1a7ecd02.24b9584d@aol.com> Just an interesting note on this discussion. I picked up Military Modelcraft magazine and was thumbing through it this morning and found an article devoted to W.W.I in plastic. Ground stuff only. Pretty meager list. The author states that W.W.I is sparse on the ground but takes no shot at an explanation. Some nice photos and a neat run down of kits. According to his sources, Emhar will release an FT-17 in the near future. Life is good.

Ouch! A little expensive. :-) However, they are nice. The one I saw on planes had an *LVG C.VI*! Exciting. However... I bought "him" a book on tank cut-a-ways. However, 3/4ths of the tanks were WW1!! The Mk.I, Whippet, A7V *and Ft.17. Exciting! Imagine. I have to buy a "kid's" book to finally get interior detail of the Ft.17. :-) Well worth the US$6 I spent.
