Not ugly at all, Filip!  Absolutely gorgeous, in fact!  Your cdl and wood grain are perfect.  I have this one sitting close to the top of my stash pile.  You've inspired me to move it up. 
Cheers,
Bud

What a great model Filip, well done! (even if the original design might not win too many prizes in any world war one aircraft beauty contest.)

Best wishes
Nigel

Hi Filip.

Ugly? Not at all.

You made it quite beautiful. The cdl  woodgrain and the weathering are superb.

Congrats on that beauty.

Cheers

Excellent model! The finish looks perfect. Where did you find the figure?

Congratulations Filip on an excellent job, the finished model looks superb. Not my most favorite looking aeroplane but like all WW1 aircraft it has its place in history and you have certainly done it justice.

very good idea to build this unusual plane! did a great work on! did the French pilot capture her?  ;D

When it comes to the pilot figure - I don`t have an Austro-Hungarian one so I decided that the French might do if you turn your blind eye on it... In the B&W pics you can` t tell its blue  ;)
Thanks for really too kind remarks!

Hello,

Once again, it's perfect! I have two in stock.

Have you encountered difficulties?

Thank you beforehand!

Arnaud

Cheers! Arnaud, the model is pretty decent, plastic is hard though. If I had another go on this one - I would replace the struts with something more to scale, cause the one OOB are simply too thick and they look crude. I`m thinking of replacing them in fact. Other than that I remember it as a really pleasant build.

I have only just started this kit today.  I saw this kit and couldn't pass it up. Such a strange plane.
