I agree!

Louis, continue modeling in this genre. You have a gift! By the way, where did you get that marvelous jig?
Cheers,
Bud

Thank you very much!




She is finnished!


A new windshield is made with transparent sheet for "overhead projector" and a new "ladder" with brass.



All the plane is weathering with oil paint and graphite pencil for small "scratch" on metal hood.



The stand is surrounded with lead wire.



The map is made with cigarette paper and pencil gray and red/brown. Gloves and the packet of Lucky Strike are made with Milliput.

Phenomenal!

You're a wizard, Louis. The gloves, the Lucky Strikes, everything! Just incredible! Still, where did you get that jig?
Congratulations,
Bud

Beautiful colourful SPAD. And yet, finely weathered, nice base. All in all, a modelling gem. Congratulations.

Very nice. I really like that composition of pilot, tailplane, gloves and map. It makes a real connection between the pilot and the plane. Well done

Richard
