It is indeed, dear Ken! Whenever I feel tired of detailing a cockpit with PE bits or stryrene sprues, I turn to these masters that make their models without other things but raw materials and lots of talent. Scratchbuilders -and of course a bunch of fellers in this list, whatever the scale of preference- always encourage me to try harder. May I ever be so good at this hobby!

Besides the Albatros DV reissue, which we already know about, they told me that they were planning to reissue the Fokker EIII and the SSW DIII in their updated molding technique. They should be great models. No time table was given however. (Of course they also told me they would send me a catalog, which I never recieved).

Despite the fact that the story takes place in the Argonne in 1918, there was very little OT to be found. All characters above the rank of major were the usual arrogant nitwits, sending the innocents to the slaughter. All characters below the rank of major were the usual New York stereotypes; smart-assed hustlers or dreamy immigrant idealists. There was of course, the requisite sprinkling of ethnicity, including a Chinese, to prove that America is the "melting pot". All characters of the rank of major looked as though they wished they were elsewhere, as did I. The American battalion comander demonstrated his superior military leadership by keeping his tunic buttoned and collecting the identy disks of the dead. If he had done anything to improve his defensive position, like digging a hole or two, he wouldn't have had so many dead to keep track of. Why he chose a position at the bottom of a steep slope, down which the Germans poured regularly, was not explained. The cinemgraphic techniques of washed-out colors and hand-held cameras were lifted directly from "Private Ryan", and here consistently misapplied so one was left with the impression of a black and white home movie shot on a Tilt-a-Whirl. The nausea that resulted was more a product of motion sickness than the violence portrayed. I guess the uniforms were OK, and while I don't know much about period vehicles, these looked to be closer to 1930. They were, however, muddy. The sole airplane with any film time was a Stampe pretending to be an SE5. It featured a WWII disruptive camouflage and French cockades, improperly applied. The American pilot was killed, but didn't crash the plane. I should have watched "The Sopranos" rerun on HBO. All IMHO, of course.

Further, the pattern was usually reversed from over port and starboard aileron. Eg, on the starboard aileron, the fabric was cut with the selvedge on the trailing edge, while the port aileron pattern was cut from the middle of the bolt and reversed in orientation, presumably to reduce waste.

If it is an early Eduard, I would probably go for a current Roden as they are more detailed. I have the top wing on the Eduard Schnieder ( a major milestone in a kit and the start of downhill home trip ), it is pretty clunky and basic in comparison to the current Roden Fokker DVII. I dont really like all the PE parts for components that require structural integrity like struts, which seems to be common on early Eduard kits. If it was a toss up between a current Roden and an early Eduard I would go Roden and be prepared to spend longer on preperation. However for current releases, the Eduard DrI is probably the best engineered 1:72 model I have built. cam www.australianflyingcorps.org ______________________________________________________________ Get Your Free E-mail at http://www.prontomail.com ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 03 Dec 2001 16:37:25 -0800 From: "Matt Bittner" To: "wwi@wwi-models.org" Subject: Re: speaking of nieuports Message-ID: On Mon, 3 Dec 2001 13:38:00 -0500 (EST), Jan Vihonen wrote: > That definitively would make life much easier.
