Title: CSM Rumpler 6.B1 float plane
Post by: Alexis on January 20, 2020, 08:37:04 AM

After a couple years this one is finally finished . It had it's moments which tested my nerves more than anything else . Still though if I had a pair of giant green hands I would have smashed it calling it a puniy plane !

There are few folks who I want to thank , first off is guitarlute101 ( Mark ) for sending me a spare kit to move forward with this build and my friends Paul and his wife Susan for getting me the contrail strut I needed so fast ! Thank-you  8)

And all the rest of you for the on going support , was perfect mojo to continue !

So happy to see this beauty finished, T!  What a stunner she turned out to be in spite of the challenges!  I've got this baby in the stash and it tempts me from time to time.  Now that you've completed yours, I'm more tempted than ever.
Cheers,
Bud

Very good work, Terri. Turned out really beautiful.
I think it is allways very satisfying when you get done one of the shelf queens, that are calling all the time: "Make me ready. Or am I to difficult for such a beginner like you?"
Bye,
Manni

It's the ones that fight that make us better modelers.  You obviously won THAT fight!  Excellent result, Terri,  Really superb.

I completely agree with the others: in spite of all the problms you have won through with an excellent model. That is a very shapely floatplane - and I do like floatplanes - especially the less well known types.

Really glad that you guys like how the project turned out , but I can assure you there are many , many flaws in this build . Just very well hidden  ;) For me the main thing is she sits levelled !

Stephen , still have a few more WW1 float planes in the stash (5) and a couple of WW2( 3 ) as well . So plenty more builds of these iconic fighters !
