Classic Biplane Duelists
Re: Classic Biplane Duelists
That's a very nice looking engine! Really like the way you painted it up
March as one, Don't look back
Odin's sons... Attack!
Unleash hell! Do not repent! Warfare grants us no lament
Let your weapons slash and tear This is no place for fear
Hold the lines! Move as one! In unity our victory's won
Our shields will form a mighty wall
United we shall never fall

Wow, that looks really good!
To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..

Looks good Carlos! The white cowling highlights the guns very well.

Re: Classic Biplane Duelists
I took the better part of the morning to read through this entire Thread now that I found it. This has been a thrilling, hilarious and highly educational trip through history. Looking at the phenomenal work on all three of your models in progress is pure eye candy, the cream on top of this cake. 
I am overwhelmed and stoked to find this and be able to join this journey, albeit quite late compared to all the rest of you. I feel like I've been wandering the halls wondering where everyone went, and now I found the room where the party has been going on all this time! LOL!
Keep it coming people, and lets keep this party rolling!

Re: Classic Biplane Duelists
Thanks, John Kim! You’re right. I have not added any operational usage yet, and I am still debating whether I should depict the chin pan or not. The photo is a blow up from a 1917 unit photo. I need to look up the unit, to properly attribute the photo. Ah, Jasta 14.
There is no indication at all of this on the Aurora kit.
