Title: Caudron G.III
Post by: Pep111 on August 28, 2024, 06:31:21 AM
HI all, started this build back in April, then I put it on the shelf to do the memorial build for Dave.
A great kit from Copperstate.
Painted with MRP, rigged with 2lb. mono with a combination of Gaspatch turnbuckles and .05mm brass tubbing.
Thanks for Looking.

Wow!  I just saw a G.4 at the Smithsonian.  Yours looks the part.  Awesome.

What an utterly magnificent build, bravo! The prop in particular looks like the real deal.

I have two of these in the stash - one for a friend, the other is payment for same - and I'm still beyond daunted. But it's terrific to see such brilliant work!

Super build - They are a very attractive aircraft and the kits are really nicely presented. If I had a tad more space I'd certainly be tempted . . .

    Very nicely done and presented. This I am certain is not a simple Kit to build and you've done a great job on it, superb "clean" construction and complex rigging all done to a degree of realism to be envied. Congratulations on a truly beautiful model!
Cheers,
Lance

First class in every way.It is good to see a latice tail modelled - they are very evocative to me.
