Came across this. Modelling German World War I Aircraft by Dave Hooper
https://www.amazon.com/Modelling-German-World-War-Aircraft/dp/1785008846/?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_w=MGg4C&pf_rd_p=29505bbf-38bd-47ef-8224-a5dd0cda2bae&pf_rd_r=T1F572P8FP72NWCV9JJQ&pd_rd_r=26ce41fc-9497-4f30-ac02-de8deb98b8aa&pd_rd_wg=qlktO&ref_=pd_gw_ci_mcx_mr_hp_atf_m

Here's a vote strongly in favor of the book. As a 1/72 modeler, on the first pass through I was disappointed at many of the in-depth discussions being based on WNW kits, a closer look found a lot of good ideas and examples that are beneficial to my favorite work.
A really good book and worth the 30-odd US dollars it cost me.

Thanks Rick. I may just have to purchase this. Looking at sample pages on Amazon, it looks like there is a lot of valuable information, techniques, and tips in it regardless what scale a person models.

Yep - Picked one up just before Christmas and it's a cracker (no pun intended) ;)
Lot's of information equally applicable to other bipes and early aircraft. I keep going back to it as I'm progressing through various builds to see how things are done. I liked that the author offers several different ways of doing a job so there's bound to be something in here of interest
Happy reading
