Smile Photobucket albums

I am organizing all my pictures into different albums.
Hangar dio1-the Albatros
Hangar dio2-the Nieuport
Hangar dio3-the Jenny Canuck

The Jenny will be organized into the proper sequence of the build.

Further to above:
I will also create sub albums for the major components such as aircraft,cars,trucks,engines etc.....
The pics that I had deleted will eventually be restored and also put in a new updated thread that I am planning.
Cheers! John.

Most of the wiring is finished, now it is just a matter of hooking everything up together and putting quick disconnects between the main hangar and the modules.

Over the course of this build I have enjoyed taking pictures of some of the figures and using them to tell little stories that will eventually exist in these pictures only.This figure is destined to go outside with the pilot group.
It is also a lot of fun coming up with your own titles for these pictures such as
"Threshold of a New World" or "Dawn of a New Era" etc......
It looks to me that he is looking out the door trying to imagine what may be over the horizon.

Pictures like these will be found in my new sub-album called "Figures" in my photobucket .

This is when it starts to be fun taking pics.I have connected up the office lights to the main hangar and took this shot through the office window.You can see just the back of Harley (the fur persons)head through the office door into the hangar.The opening on the right leads to the wood shop.
