As far as I know no-one has ever eaten dingo droppings. My Albatross is now ready for decalling prior to attaching top wing and rigging. I am starting to like this model again.

Message-ID: <5.1.0.14.0.20010909214414.00a40dd0@aristotle.net> While looking through a coffee table book on antique tractors, I noticed that the tracks are painted the same color as the tractor, itself, and that some paint wears off from contact with the ground and rusts. Now, these are restored tractors, but the folks who own them are bound to be as particular as modelers, so it is probably authentic. New Caterpillars have painted tracks as well. Look next time you pass a dealership. So, should the tracks on WWI AFVs, some of which were modified farm tractors, be painted the same color as the hull? ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 09 Sep 2001 21:12:45 -0700 From: Rory Goodwin To: wwi@wwi-models.org Subject: Re: AFV treads paint or no paint? Message-ID: <3B9C3DBD.7D75133F@earthlink.net> FWIW, I work a lot around heavy equipment, and it is amazing how quickly paint applied to tracks is ground off by dirt,sand, mud, etc.and replaced by rust, thickly encrusted soil and even the odd bits of brush and twigs (this applies to the lower hull, wheels & suspension as well). So, unless you want a factory-fresh AFV that hasn't been driven very far, perhaps hull-colored tracks should be dry-brushed rust, and thick mud-brown liberally applied. I think the quote in the old Testor's Willys Jeep kit instructions sums it up: "Military vehicles do not move so much over the terrain as through it."

They were white metal castings of figures in overalls with the chain mail masks about their necks. Rather well done, in relaxed poses. Easily up to Scale Link standards. Good anatomy and fabric draping. Unfortunately, I can't remember the manufacturer's name!!! Something like L&S or L&K. I'm sure if you contact Model Cellar they will be able to help you out. Seemed like they'd go great with a Scale Link Mk. IV.

This weekend my Pfalz D.IIIa became a biplane – which means that I put the upper wing, but the experience was a bit painful, due to the fact that wing and struts don't make a 90 degrees angle. Anyway, it looks OK now, waiting for the landing gear. I'll start working on this next weekend. Looks good, looks good... Only problem is that thing already mentioned in the list, I couldn't hide that horizontal line created by the third fuselage piece.
