Own project based on Windsock Datafile 48 "Airco DH.2", archival photos, planes etc.
Material : carboard, natural silk, bamboo sticks, painted acrylic paints.
Regards,
Dick

Very beautiful job!
That's really a fine build. And even more impressive considering it is scratch-build.
Delightful to see.

You do such incredible work, I hope these are finding their way into a museum somewhere.

Beautiful job on a strange looking airplane. Hard to believe that they were actually flying these 100 years ago...

Another magnificent model, Dick. The DH.2 always seemed to my eye to be a good-looking airplane, and it was certainly historic. Yours is a real beauty.
