Those folks that do the large scales could I have your opinion on the Academy 1/32 Camel and Hobbycraft Nieuport N.17C. Any inputs would be appreciate. Chris ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 6 Feb 2002 00:03:15 +0100 From: "Hans Trauner" To: Subject: Deutsches Museum visit Pics available! Message-ID: <001b01c1ae99$4b2c2c60$d9ad72d4@FRITZweb> Listees, today I took the chance during a business trip to Munich to visit the main branch of the Deutsches Museum. They hold a Rumpler C.IV, a replica Fokker Dr I and a Fokker D VII. The Fokker was not on show and I think it's on restoration. According to current worldwide museum politics ( No fake colors!) we should expect a Fokker in brown with Netherlands markings when it will be back! The Deutsches Museum also has UR I and III engines, a Mercedes D II and a Siemens ShIII plus a nice propeller collection. For all those I prepare jpg's and I will post them to the mother of all WWI pages. Allan, be aware, watch disk space... I also took a two pics from a Bleriot IX which hangs from the ceiling plus real ot Me 26§ detail shots, a few pics of the Me16§, a Rheintochter, plus a few details from the ex-spanish Bf 10§-E. And I have a 5-pic series of the Kaiser's first U-Boat, the U1. Contact me off-line if you want them, please state which pics you want to have ( Bleriot / Luftwaffe/ U1).

Does anybody out there have any pics of the underside of the wings of the Arado 234? I'm doing a painting and I haven't run across a decent pic anywhere that shows the tiny doodads that live there. You'd think with the only remaining one having been restored over ten years ago at NASM there would be all kinds of stuff all over the web and it wouldn't be a problem. I've got all the usual magazine and book junk, but still nothing clear. If anyone has anything, please reply offlist! Anyway, the quicker I can get this project out of the way, the quicker I can get on to more WW I stuff!

The kit builds pretty well and I didn't find the plastic too hard. However, care needs to be taken with the struts and undercart struts as these are brittle. I broke the undercarriage in two places when I was fitting it. Kit also has the starving cow effect but seems okay apart from that (mind you taking account of the above, I never measured it for accuracy either- ah those were the days!)

There are many other changes taking effect as a result of this, some of which may be of interest to those of you seeking to improve your book and kit collections. I shall be posting a list of items that are available for sale in the next week or two once I get sorted out just what I can afford to part with.

A friend of mine did. It was quite hard, but he managed to build it with minimal cuss and swearing. In any case, it needs as much work as an old Airfix model to get it to modern "contest quality" standards. If you get any of the DH9 vacs still around, you'd rather start with those.

Each one is also *not* listed in the News page. Just visit the IM "front page" and look for additions. So far no on topic ship articles... Oh, I'll also add some of the "modeling content" articles in the future. In other words the article that deal with a certain modeling topic, like Ernest's way of painting the Fokker (et. al.) squiggly cowls.

Makes it so much easier to find them when they are all in one place now. Speaking of these, ICM 1/72 Sikorsky Il'ya Muromets build by Michael Kendix sure is nice. I really like this plane. But knowing how quick I dont build I am sure it would out live me in it's box after I am in a box. ;-) Cheers Ross ----- Original Message ----- From: "Matt Bittner" To: "Multiple recipients of list" Sent: Wednesday, February 06, 2002 10:29 PM Subject: [WWI] A whole lot of updatin' goin' on > First, I added a whole bunch of links.
