The A-H prop logo decals arrived yesterday, so the Lloyd is now complete. The first photos on the shelf do not have the Jaray logos.

I still need to improve my photography, but I hope these shots at least show off the beautiful lines of this aircraft.
I enjoyed the challenge of this build, and am very pleased with the result. There are lots more aircraft I would love to scratch build, but I am going to enjoy a few kits first! Thanks for looking and all of your support!
Cheers,
Bob
-
Wonderful result, hardy congrats!
Regarding the photography -- the right lights help, and if you are using a digital camera that lets you manipulate white balance, learn how to use that control with a little experimentation. That will cure the yellow cast that you are getting.
Cheers,

Bob, It is a beauty. The finish and attention to detail are outstanding. When does your exhibit in the Smithsonian open?

At last, I've finally gotten around to taking what I hope are some better pictures of the Lloyd. I hope she looks better in these:

Yes Nigel, you can see the build log here:
http://forum.ww1aircraftmodels.com/index.php?topic=1020.0
It was truly a learning experience.
Thanks everyone for the very kind comments. They are greatly appreciated. I learned a great deal from this project, and am very happy with the model. ;D
Cheers,
Bob

Hello Bob:
I am just now catching up on this one. I followed this all through the build stages and now, what a magnificent model. Your workmanship is truly outstanding as is the build. The updated photo's really highlight and enhance the model. An outstanding example of the modelers art.
Best
Mark

w o n d e r f u l !!!

Excellent result Bob, congratulations!

Since I was snapping lots of pics over the weekend, I decided to add some from this build from back in 2013. The original photos of the model on this thread were not very good quality. The link for the build log can be found earlier in this thread if anyone is interested. I've always enjoyed the graceful, elegant lines of the Lloyd's bird-like design and the beauty of the mahogany veneer. I also really like the Austrian Maltese crosses from this period.

A comparison with the Berg D.I, showing the size difference. The Lloyd was actually quite small for a 2-seater, while the Berg was fairly compact for a pursuit plane. Two Austrian originals!

I hope you enjoyed this trip down memory lane as much as I did!
