CardPlane PWS Z-17 Sep

Hello, all! I really wanted to start this build thread here, but the site was down for so long I decided to post it at kartonbau.de. Rather than cross-post, I invite anyone who's interested to view the build here. Due to my declining fluency in German, I've decribed the build in good ol' English, so fear not.

Glad to see the site back up. Cheers!

An outstanding build, Chris. Very fine craftsmanship, good step-by-step photos, and useful explanations of the building process.

Hi C.Coyle,
the construction of your model I like a lot, is very interesting.
Very precise details of the Cockpit!
Thanks for the pics.

Chris, this build is coming together very nicely - the cockpit is really beautiful. There is something about the unique wing arrangement of this plane that has always piqued my interest.

Best regards,
Adam

A bit off topic. Looked at GPM, they had a large variety of Polish wing fighters in 1:33, which isn't surprising for a Polish company. What was surprising was the almost 10 to 1 price gap, from around three to over twenty dollars for kits that should be basically similar. Could someone explain the big difference to me?
