Planet models Rumpler C IV in scale 1:48
« on: December 19, 2013, 11:44:35 PM »
Some time ago I began to build the Rumpler C IV about the Observer OLt von Pechmann. Because the planet instructions is bad, so I use too the WNW instructions. The two Windssock Datafiles Nr 35 and 149 also on board.
I need also the correct Serial Number of this aircraft! Does anyone know this?
Here are the pictures from beginning. :-X

Isn't this shaping up beautifully radio? I've never been one for adding aircrew to my models, but I have to admit that your including a pilot certainly adds a new dimension to things and is impressive.

Best wishes
Nigel

Beautiful work, Martin!  I've got this kit in the stash, so I'll be taking notes.  Hecker & Goros also have an observer figure standing in the firing position.  Will you be adding that one, as well?
Cheers,
Bud

Yes Bud
but it will be one of the last. These two men are in one kit, I think they where for the old Eduard Hannover.
