[LRflex] Re: [Leica] Tank on a table top

I gotta hand it tou you two. I could never produce
models that looked realistic. Even the big ones were
obviously models as revealed by the door seams. 
I just bought a Guillow's Sopwith Camel on ebay. I am
planning to build a scale control line model out of
it. Wish me luck! The WW1 birds have always scaled
better than the WW2 or modern ones IMHO
See Ya
