u can use any site that you can post pictures on. its a question of how easy getting a picture in to the forum is. photobucket when you click on the direct link it automatically copys it for you. i just started out with it so of course i think its easy. its just what i use. i find virtual areodome hard to navigate, just because ive been using this forum and this one is so simple.

Construction is at a halt right now, because I have no glue.

it looks like you have got construction down pretty well. what kind of glue do you use? covering takes years of practice. im 14 and ive been building for about 4 or 5 years and my covering is ok. make sure you thin that dope 50 50 with thinner. everything is super heavy if you dont.

Here is the avenger

And here is the p38

And the typhoon

And me with a p38 prop in my mouth

Sorry squishy, neither the P38 or the P51 were the best planes of world war two......

Think Spitfire (for pure good looks and elegance), or Focke Wulf 190, Tempest or Fury (for pure raw power and guts)

Welcome aboard!

ADW, I used titebond on the rufe, and used elmers glue on the avenger. The typhoon I used balsa cement from the tube. I used elmers for the p38 as well.

dont soak that tissue. just lightly mist it a couuple of times until it is taught. you should do that after covering a anyways. if the parts are flimsy, u should use a jig. just pin it down to a work board
