Hi all, Recently joined up to the site and have been in awe of the builds going on here so i decided to include a few pics of my current build. Not a warbird but a Smith Miniplane from a Traplet plan. Also have a few on the drawing board including a NA T-28 Trojan, Hostetler Steen Skybolt and a plan being sent to the kit cutters here in Australia. Thanks, Andy.

 

I apologise in advance if the pics are a bit ordinary..

G'day Andy, Welcome aboard and thanks for becoming a site supporter. You will find this site to be the best community on the web, full of knowledge and a great buch of guys.

Your current build looks great  why not start a build thread for the Smith Miniplane

You have some very intersting builds lined up there, will look forward to seeing them come to life.

Where abouts in Oz are you from?

Cheers

Rob

Hi Andrew, welcome to RCSB.  You have a nice looking shop there, and a good start on the mini-plane. 
Thanks for sharing!

I recommend PhotoRazor - freeware and easy to use, just google search for it.
The pics you posted are a pretty good size, could be a tad larger but are acceptable at that size.
