These group builds are alot of fun. It's nice to compare and learn from each other.
I'm kind of digging the WWI planes too. I found a WWI tank on amazon I might try at a later date. Do you remember the title of the show you saw? It sounds interesting.

Very true. That one is my Meerschaum pipe from the 1960s. Then I have 7 more different pipes, all vintage except 2.

My dad smokes pipes for years.He got rid of the all when he quit.

Dad died 10 years ago, and I still miss him everyday.
His funeral was filled with so many police officers from a few different agencies. What really got me was the 21 gun salute... I lost it then, and just broke down.

Dad joined the Houston PD in 1964, the same year I was born. He was there for 20 years. He started out in the K-9 division, I was about 2 years old at that time. Blitz was a great dog.
Then dad had a partner, David Nole, for many years. Unfortunately David was killed trying to break up a bar fight.
I heard he was stabbed in that fight.

I really had a great childhood growing up under the Thin Blue Line, so much I joined with Harris County. ;) :)

Dad was my hero...

So I have primed and base coated the wood parts, also primed the major parts white and then one coat of Tamiya red on the 1/48 Eduard fokker.

The Revell 1/28 is waiting for decals and final gloss top coat. 20231023_205156.jpg20231023_205203.jpg20231023_205250.jpgPantherman

Yeah, it gives real meaning to the phrase "it's not the size that matters, it's what you do with it ". I can't find a cross-eyed emoji. Pantherman
