    You are a brave man tackling a 1/72 WW1 aircraft....so small with a limited number of parts. The rigging turned out quite well.....using the stretched sprue was a good idea. Hopefully you enjoyed building it....I've not heard of Flashback model kits but, looking online, they have WW1 aircraft in 1/48 so maybe something to look into??? Thanks for sharing.

      Thanks Robert. Flashback is one of these Czech brand which appeared 25 years ago with Eduard, Special Hobby, etc. Lot of problems with this kit. Stretched sprues were not a good idea. When I was looking at the final result, it seemed good. But, in my opinion, the outdoors photos showed that they were too thick. Moreover, they are breaking one by one without touching the plane. I am now rebuilding this part with fishing wire. It is long and tricky. In addition, decals were too old. They disintegrate... I have to paint the roundels... LOL. Well anyway, that's fun. Each kit is only a test before the next one. Thanks very much for your support. Keep on building

      Thanks for letting me know of Flashback models. Sorry to hear that the stretched sprue didn't really work.... I actually thought that it was a little heavy for the scale and EZ line would have been better but didn't want to sound negative given the poor quality of the kit and the time, patience and care you took to build it. Hopefully the next one you build will be a lot easier (although it seems you don't mind a challenge!)

      @@robbo1068 Well, as I say in my presentation, any remark is welcome. Thanks for yours. When I saw my outdoors photos, I wanted to put it in a corner and forget it. Club friends pushed me, saying that I could do better. So, I dismantled the upper wing seeing that many stretched sprues were breaking. I builded longer exterior masts in Evergreen styrene strips. I drilled oblong holes in the upper and lower wings to insert them and 0.08 mm fishing wires. Much thinner AND more solid. This is were I am today. There is still a long time to finish it because, I just begin the new rigging. Then, I have to paint the wings again AND roundels which suffured a lot. Conclusion: that's fun😀... Thanks again. Keep on modelling👍

    Hello fellow modelers. Here is the video of my first WWI plane in 1/72. Hope you enjoy:) As usual, any suggestion, any remark most welcomed. Thanks
