| David Duckett | Dave Diels Engineering, Inc Kit #29 Hawker Typhoon Mk 1B | Build | 09-Apr-15 04:54 |  | | Views : 903 | | The completed prop assembly is ready for attachment but will be one of the last things to be glued on. This 7" scale prop is 14' on the real aircraft. |
| David Duckett | Dave Diels Engineering, Inc Kit #29 Hawker Typhoon Mk 1B | Build | 09-Apr-15 04:50 |  | | Views : 943 | | Masked with 1/16" Pactra masking tape. BTW: I've been informed that Pactra is out of business and this tape is no longer made so I've stocked up. Tamiya masking tape is probably a good substitute but I haven't used it. |
| David Duckett | Dave Diels Engineering, Inc Kit #29 Hawker Typhoon Mk 1B | Build | 09-Apr-15 04:47 |  | | Views : 932 | | The props were carved from hard 3/16" stock using the basic technique shown in the "how to" section under the main menu except that I used one piece instead of laminations. They were given one coat of dope, one coat of filler, and then two coats of dopw prior to painting. The tips were first painted pink, a color on hand so to speak, and then painted yellow. |

| Dale1416 | Dumas Kit #232, Albatros DV | Build | 08-Apr-15 21:12 |  | | Views : 2353 | | Decided to go with this color scheme, instead of kit suggested red. I already have a red Fokker Triplane, so was looking for more variety to add to my hangar. |
| Dale1416 | Dumas Kit #232, Albatros DV | Build | 08-Apr-15 21:12 |  | | Views : 2416 | | Construction well underway. Deviations from kit plans are additional wing ribs and spars and the fuselage was infilled for a better representation of this aircraft. |
