Title: 1/48 AZmodels Gotha G.V
Post by: pustota on April 03, 2014, 01:50:34 AM

Was working on the model for a year. A lot of things I did  by myself, mainly aircraft interiors.
Propellers are wooden.The hexagons are selfmade decals printed from adobe file that i did.
As I just finished the construction  i have found that Austrians air forces never had a Gotha G.V bombers, only Gotha G.IV.
So its was my mistake to paint that plane with hexagons. Nevertheless i decided to leave it as it, enjoy.

Wow!

Great job - bet that takes up some shelf display space even in this scale!

You did a great job with the lozenge decals, the wood propellers and the aircraft interior, the rigging is also extremely well done, congratulations on a superb build.

This is a super piece of work. OK, so I take your point about the paint problem; these things happen. Nevertheless, even the way in which you prepared and conducted the process testifies to your skills and vision as a modeller.

Best wishes
Nigel

Great job on this model.  First one I have seen completed.  The lozenge really dresses this up, even if it isn't correct for the type.  Makes me want to dig out my WNW Gotha!   
Rigging looks great as well.

Thanks for posting

Best

Mark

Truly brilliant work, Pustota.  I love the props and the lozenge looks fantastic.  I have this kit in my stash and haven't worked up the nerve to start it.  You've inspired me.
Cheers,
Bud

Very impressive work, Pustota. The more I see of these builds the more I dwell on building one, and a larger display case! Inspiring, congratulations on a very fine model.
Cheers,
