These look really neat Vic.  But I then know you are handy with a digital camera.  How do they look alongside 10mm ?

These are still 3d ephemera at the moment, only pixels and coordinates, once they are ready to print I'll be specifying a size. The Dewoitine D510 has a wingspan of 39' 8" (12.0904 meters) so the model would have a wingspan of 8.396 cm in 1/144 or 8.06 in 1/150. I feel a bit tired after all that calculation, I may have to sit down for a while....oh, I am sitting down  ;D ;D ;D ;D

Looking good.

Nice to see inter-war aircraft finally getting the love they deserve :)

Possibly the inter-war aircraft most common would be the Hawker Demon/Audax family. In this scale, very little if any visual difference between the two (most of it was engine, internal structural and 2 machine-guns forward on the demon, one on the Audax). 
Plenty of service in other nations as well as paroling the British Empire and action in early WW2 in Italian East Africa and Iraq. With about 700 Audax and the same again for all the other variants put together being built. Its got to be a go-er.

I found this site which is a great source for all aircraft that were used during the SCW. Also relevant for those AVBCW players.
