Title: WnWRumpler CIV "Early"
Post by: MS406 on December 18, 2014, 10:57:17 PM
So here she is in her full splendor, sexy and clean lines. I just missed some details, the wind shield has to be glued and a Gaspatch anemometer is on its way!
This plane, serial unknown, is belonging to the Marine Feld-flieger Abteilung stationed at Varsenaere in Flanders in 1917. This kit was a joy to build, weathering was kept to a decent level, I hope you will like it, best regards from France, Jean. 8) 8)

You did a superb job on your Rumpler Jean. I will definitely be buying at least one of these kits now that I've seen yours.

Cheers,

Chris

Jean,
 Nice build. I have one also, and this gives me a good idea of what one should look like. Nice shading on the wings, and good cammo as well.

A beautifully finished model. The weathering is in my opinion, just right - most convincing. Very well done.

A nice one. Looks so delicate, and in these colours almost spiritual. Congratulations!

   Just catching up after a Christmas Trip away. Lovely work, Jean, your detailing is excellent. One of these appeared under my Christmas tree so I'll be referring back to this Build for some guidance.
