Thread: The Planes Have Arrived !!!

  1. #1

    Default The Planes Have Arrived !!!

    The four planes I was fortunate to win in the raffle have arrived safe and sound at my airfield. Many thanks to Peter (Teaticket) and Jim (rhodie80) for the exquisite repaints of these planes. I am now the proud pilot of beautiful models of a SPAD XIII, a Sopwith Camel, a Fokker Dr. I, and a Fokker DVII. Here are some pictures of them flying over my no man's land terrain:

    Many thanks also to Matt56 for administering the raffle and getting these fine planes to me safely.

    Four real gems there Bill!

    You're one lucky so-and-so!
    I laugh in the face of danger - then I hide until it goes away!

    I was hoping to save the postage and add them to my collection, Bill, but I think I must have done something to piss off the Raffle God...

    Glad they look good on your game mat!

    All the best,
    Matt

    Again congratulation on the win. Hopefully you can bring them to one of the HMGS cons so we can see them in action. Historicon in July maybe.

    Looking good on your table, Bill.

    But I'm thinking they would have looked fine on mine ..


    One of these years it will be my turn.

    Drool Drool Has Mike (Old Guy 59) done a card for them with FTL and stealth capabilities to ensure they survive


    I'm learning to fly, but I ain't got wings
    Coming down is the hardest thing
