One more image today. I find it interesting that he solders the parts. This whole activity tells me we may be heading for another step in the modeling we do. I know I am really happy to learn something new.

I just had some contact with Wojtek on his progress. He is prepping some brass for more examples of the Nieuport 28 for possible sale. The 1/48 wing set is done and now he is working on the 1/32 set. Hey Larsa what are you doing next year?

I think I might be willing to try one. It really looks interesting. Also, let me know when he will be doing a 1/32 Alb. D.V.
