| The site owner added the West Wings Hawker Tempest, so I’m starting to upload pictures I have taken since I started this last fall. Starting with pictures of the box, parts, balsa and print quality and plans. |

| I'm working on a West Wings Hawker Tempest, but I don't see this as a kit I can select to add to my hanger. Does anyone know how to get a new kit added to the list? |

| I didn’t like the decals in the kit, so I created my own using a ink jet printer and water slide decal inkjet paper. All you need to do is print the decal on the paper, then overspray the decal with a thin coat of clear enamel. Then apply like any other water slide decal. Once the decals had set, I sprayed them with mat clear. |

| The model is covered in Top Flight Silk Span and doped with Eze Dope. Love the water soluble dope. So much easier to work with then the old Hot Fuel Proof dopes I used in the past! I used Vallejo Acrylic paints with an airbrush, and a fine drafting pen for panel lines. |

| This is the first balsa model I had built since the mid 90’s. I discovered the West Wings kits through ebay and decided to build one. Very happy with the kit. Good quality wood, easy to understand construction. Nothing surprising, just a good kit to get back into balsa model building. |
