This is a scratchbuilt 1/24 scale Sopwith Dolphin by Ron Lowry, a Master Modeller and noted aviation Illustrator, with models in the U.S. Air and Space Museum in Washington, and illustrator of many Aviation related books, ie. both volunes of "Spitfire- The Canadians".
This 1/72 model of the Athabaska is also scratch built by fellow IPMS'r Jim Rutlidge, a three year project totally built from scratch with the exception of the anchor chains!
The FW 190's etc. were my entery in the collections class, took third place (damn these clever kids and their skillfull building). :-)
