[WWI] WWI List Re: 2nd Chance Contest?

[Rob]

Hi,

Its what Bud said.  

I live in arizona and I stuck them in a baggie for a week in a south-facing window and they are still yellow!

In the end I didn't do Kempf's machine.

You'll see what I did when Brent puts up the contest pics!

Have fun with it.  Like I said its a very nice kit to build.  Especially considering how old it is.  They supplied the rigging steel, and even a jig to roll the Spandau jackets.  The only odd thing is the PE landing gear and inner struts (cabane?).

Hello, Rob!

            What is the issue with the decals? I do think the carrier film looks rather thick. Do they not settle easily? The last Dragon kit I built was the stars and stripes Spad and that was about 300 years ago.  Thanks for any advice you could offer on this.

                       

                                                                                                                        Cheers,

 

                                                                                                                                 Nick.

I'd watch the decals on that if I were you.

The dragon kit goes together very well.

Hi, Brent. Is it too late to join in on this one? Has it kicked off yet? Just finished a lengthy headache of a build (and posted the pics to the gallery!) and I've an ancient Dragon fokker Dr.I (kempf) in a squashed sunbleached box which I've had for the best part of 20 years. I reckon this is a good opportunity to get it built. If I've missed the boat it'll probably be another 20 years. And an even more faded box. And the little dead spider in the box will be fossilised (he did not come with the kit).
                                                                                    
                                                                                                       Cheers!
                           
                                                                                                                 Nick.
