ORIGINAL: CrateCruncher

My favorite build so far is the Proctor Nieuport 11 (which still isn't finished btw). Although it framed up beautifully (practically built itself) I still changed the structure to be more scale. They leave out the cockpit detail so theres a chance to go wild scratching all that. Go on Abu, you know you want a Proctor. The Jenny is 1/6, and nobody I can think of would do it better justice.

Edit: added a pic of the N11.
I think it was the Proctor N11 that first sparked my obsession with scale models. I saw one in a hobby shop almost 30 years ago and was fascinated but it seemed like an impossible amount of money at that time. It really set the standard for scale model kits.
