      Hi dolf,

      great stuff so far! I've also been modeling aircraft for a while now, here's a thread I posted a while back with some of my airplanes: http://forums.sketchucation.com/viewtopic.php?f=81&t=26709

        Numbthumb thanks for your encouraging comment
        ken28875 I always try to make my models as accurate and "real life" as possible, with aircraft I am fond of trying to duplicate a particular plane flown by a named pilot, not always possible ...but i try so to answer your question as much detail. markings etc as possible
        Ultimatez 32 I had a look at your thread your models look cool thanks for sharing

            Well, from what I have seen so far, Dolphus I am expecting nothing less from you this time.

            I was wondering how dcauldwell´s Sopwith Pup was coming along? 😉

              What are all the antennae on the elevators? Looks like a spy plane used to do radio intercepts.

                                  Excellent work, Dolphus! Do you ever take a break?
                                  My guess would also be one of those Bell47 M.A.S.H helicopters. I am undecided about the version - H, maybe G.

                                        My first attempt at the tail assembly was more imagineering that engineering but since posting yesterday I got better reference materials so here goes with the improver tail assembly for the Alouette II

                                          Wow dolphus. Is there anything you can't model? One of these days I almost expect to open up this forum and see you decided to built an aircraft carrier bolt for bolt as just a little something different. 😉
