The Argentineans in the list could come for the exhibit/contest, why
not? Yesterday I confirmed the days: July 26th-27th.

That's my idea: since the model is here (and I don't even remember how
I got this Revell D.III), let's build it -- the only kit I destroy for
experiences is the old Revell Dr.I.

Besides, Tutschek wasn't high in my D.III list (I prefer more colorful
planes). And, being an easy to paint aircraft, I decided it'd be a
good choice for the Revell D.III.

Exactly! I liked the overall result (only regret some loss of detail
because of brush painting -- no room for airbrush at home) and learnt
a lot for future Roden D.VII's, since I have a couple of them waiting
to be built.

All the best from Brazil
