The fuselage, fin/rudder AND the centre of the tailplane all appear to be in the same dark colour. Note how the darker centre isn't just the result of shadow The standing bear appears to be repeated in a triangular thingie on the yellow portion of the tailplane. wings are camouflaged in three segments dark/light/dark.

Certainly, they are thicker and less finely molded than Toko/Roden, ICM but they look buildable. I have yet to build one yet but expect to do so in the near future. As for the warm beer joke, "warm" means around 50 F (I think, so it's not that warm; don't try swimming in 50 F water). Allow me to suggest an alternative view.

I've built Eduard's DIII which has a beautifully done interior that looks great even OOB. As you know, the DV is their old mold with the rather spartan interior in terms of the plastic details. Here are my questions: 1) Has anyone built the interior OOB and does it look halfway decent when finished? 2) I have the HiTech Detail set for the DV, and have painted the flooring "box" that they've included, but it just doesn't seem to fit a look realistic in dry fits that I have done. Has anybody used this interior part and gotten it to look good?

My own catalog and pricelist, besides being considerably marked up with notes, is dated "Spring 1999". I will be ordering more soon, but have no scanner in all events. Has anyone a current catalog, and the scanner to import the image? Matt? Allan? Lance John Glaser wrote: > I imagine we're not on his top ten favorite web sites.
