Generally speaking, while the Blue Max is more detailed, more accurate and more expensive, the Lindberg kit fits better, can be spruced up and only cost me $10. The interior of the Lindberg must be scratchbuilt. It has two grooves for Vickers machine guns, so one must be filled in and sanded, as does the hole in the bottom of the fuselage for the stand. And I will be replacing the struts. The worst part of the kit was a sinkhole in the left-hand radiator shutters, which prompted me to buy the BM kit so I can make both the Hispano and the Viper versions. One of the nicest things about the Lindberg kit is that you get a Hispano engine that you can detail to death -- if you so choose. It's even visible through the Blue Max nosepiece, so its worth some effort. That about says it for the Lindberg kit, it will look as good as the effort you put into it. And the effort isn't any bigger than working with a limited-run injection kit, as far as I can tell so far. You didn't ask about the Blue Max kit, so I'll only say that it is splendid and does not have wing ripple. I may end up using more putty on this one, but the details are all there, and it doesn't require cutting and gluing a lot of strip and rod sytrene.

I set up a basic site. I hope to change it later and add info etc. For now, I put a work in progress picture of my humble attempt at the Pup interior for the build-up on it. The address, for anyone interested is: http://home.att.net/~appman/wsb/html/view.cgi-home.html-.html thanks TP ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 27 Feb 2001 22:17:52 +0100 From: "Gaston Graf" To: Subject: RE: Dust was Handling Problems Message-ID: 1) store the models in dustfree cabinets 2) if the model is covered with dust either use a thick round and soft brush and carefully wipe the dust off the model 3) or use the airbrush to blow the dust away even from the most delicate parts. 4) as for models under construction I actually store my Spitfire Mk.I in an old bread case and my Dr.1 in a cardbox. Small parts I store in small boxes or if I have a free cabinet I store everything inside there.

I just tried to send Cam some Albatros stuff This morning and it kicked back because the mailbox is full - and I believe the sopwith stuff goes to the same spot So you might want to wait It's probably my fault - I've been rendering a lot and I think there are about 20 images sitting in his mailbox that I've sent over the last couple of weeks Mark Miller Find the best deals on the web at AltaVista Shopping! http://www.shopping.altavista.com ------------------------------ End of WWI Digest 3133 **********************
