Looks absolutely great. Doesn't matter how long it takes to finish the model, as long as you have fun building.

Looks great! I myself have been wanting to put together the Air France model, as my father worked on them for many years.

A very well done model, especially so given your relative newness to the hobby. I'm with Don - you have some type of previous modeling experience, yes?

As a kid a built 20+ Estes rockets at different skill levels and many plastic models. With the rockets I got some experience with templates and jigs for alignment purposes and worked with balsa in fins and nose cones. I am also into origami and have always wondered at what point origami ends and some type of sculpture begins: i.e. when you are wet folding paper how far do you go before you are no longer really in the realm of origami. It seems there is a lot of cross-over in the world of detail oriented hobbies and crafts. I hope my son can grow up in this day and age and learn to value hobbies that require patience.
Re: stick and tissue modes -- I have never done a tissue and stick model but look forward to building a stick and tissue model of the dirigible USS Los Angeles that my father gave me that he never got to as a teen. Apparently it came in a set with the Graf Zeppelin and perhaps a 3rd airship he does not remember. Thank you all for the feedback on the build. It definetly inspires me as I start my next slow and steady build project: the Currell Titanic. Last edited by snowmanX; 06-18-2017 at 04:40 PM. Reason: iPhones aren't great for text editing
