Dear mate,

You deserve it my friend.

If anyone know how difficulties that a man could create these works, they will realize how hard a man must do to complete these tiny paper aircraft models.

Not only that small scale but those men must know how to fold a very tiny piece of paper to be in proper shape, bend it to the right direction then gently fold it and attach smoothly to fit with the right position and its proper angle.

Anyone who experienced just only once, then they will have the clear feeling of difficulties to finish these type of extreme tiny perfect small scale paper airplane model.

If it has six stars in the rate, I will give you that award, mate!

Thank you for your kind words, Jack, long time no hear from you. How are you doing lately? Trust that many of us have missed you.

Almost forgot about this thread which has laid dormant for almost seven years. As a revival, I'm posting here a freeby from Gary Pilsworth - DeHavilland Dragon 1, originally at 1/48 but now reduced to 1/200. Have always wanted to do this one but no time and procrastination. Anyway, it's now done, with rigging and props that can be finger-rotated. UV resin was used to give it a glossy look and protection from light. It takes a lot practice to apply UV resin by brush and haven't mastered the skill yet. Hope to do better next time.

I agree with Jack, great results take great input.

I did this one a while back in 1/100. Struggled in that scale and here's yours in 1/200! Well done fella.
BTW, for those not aware of it, the full size VH-UXG was flying here in Australia up until 2012. Sadly it flew into unexpected low cloud and crashed into high ground not far from I lived at the time. All six on board perished.

Thank you for visiting.
Sorry to hear the crash of the real plane.
