I don't think anyone posted this yet, but there is a new sculpture on the US S@H site. A replica of the Sopwith Camel British airplane. It looks neat enough that this might become the first sculpture I buy. -Jeff (24 years ago, 8-May-01, to lugnet.general) !

(...) Yes! I second that! The price is only $49.99 [+ s/h of course] with a piece count of 577. I wonder exactly how the rigging for the wing is built? Does this mean that a Fokker biplane or triplane is next? The Red Baron's plane would be awesome. (...) (24 years ago, 8-May-01, to lugnet.general)
