Overall, I’m very pleased with this build. Learned a lot, and it was challenging in ways I didn’t expect. Lots of problem solving! Now, what to build next! I think I’m going to go with my original plan and build a 1/16 scale Hannover CIII. However, I just got a vintage Guillows BF109 (kit 401) still in its original shrink wrap that is calling my name! Also, just downloaded a plan for a DH Mosquito from Outerzone that looks like a fun build! Oh so many options!

Finish the Rumpler Taube this weekend. I’ll tell you, I’ve done less rigging on 18th Century ship models than this airplane! All the rigging is done with 28 gauge jeweler’s wire. Probably a bit too think for scale, but it’s very visible and accents all the work.

The crew painted and in situ. Painting was done with “The Army Painter” acrylic colors and washes. Not sure I like the blue lenses. Probably going to redo those.
