Caudron G4 Hydravion CSM 1:48 finished
« on: March 27, 2017, 11:28:10 PM »
Hi friends,
finally it is done, just one day before the Euro Model Expo, where the Caudron was exhibited. Please excuse the quality of the photos, I didn´t have  time to take photos at home























Finally the model took part in the contest, got a gold medal in the masterclass





This one is dedicated to Edgar and Slava from CSM for producing such a beautiful kit and for their support and of course to my wife who is always patient with me and my hobby  ;)

Cheers,
Jörg

Truly Magnificent, Jörg!  I'll bet she helped Edgar and Slava sell a few!  What a beauty!
Cheers,

Your build was a true wonder to follow! I am in awe of your construction, painting, weathering, rigging, and finally the work you did on the base and figure. Just Brilliant Modeling!

A breathtaking model and a very well deserved price! Congratulations!
And it's always good to see wwi-models winning contests. It's hardly understandable for me that not every jury knows that wwi-models always should win... :)
