....and tonight I sat down and started this! I've been having sleeping problems of late, and a few days ago, I spent the hours of 4am and 6am half-dreaming I was building this Deal's Wheels Baron. So, when I got up in the morning, I climbed up in the attic and brought down the kit, and tonight I started building it. I've got some kool paint plans for it......(I hardly ever do anything box stock.....)



Here I am in 1972 with my models. You can see Der Baron sitting in front of me along with some other Deal's builds!

These DW Planes really lend themselves to custom paint jobs , looking forward to seeing what you've got planned !

Here's a link to a video of it working. For some reason I can't get more than 90% of it to upload to Photobucket, so can't get it on here...
