Good Day,
French WWI aircrafts rigging is quite complicated. Thus having the leverage between Salmson (https://forum.ww1aircraftmodels.com/index.php?topic=11080.0) current tedious work I have decided to commence the therapy using something WITHOUT rigging.
pls find this build as the French break keeping in mind that there is nothing better for modellers brake than opening a new model
Lower wing bubbles fixed, kit engine will be used.

Interesting subject. Fine start. Will be watching with great interest!

KrzysiekK,
This is a kit I've had in my stash for a long time. The Dornier D.1 is also an aircraft I've thought I
might scratch build in 1/32nd scale in the future. I look forward to seeing your progress.

An aircraft that is seldom modeled, should be an interesting build! Nice start on the engine.
RAGIII

Very interesting! The engine looks like a copy from another kit ;)
I hope that we will see it one day as shortrun, this is on my wishlist.
Cheers,
Frank

Interesting subject! I've never seen one modelled before, so I look forward to your build.

I like where this is heading , following with interest on a subject not seen very often .

Good Day
Not much stuff inside especially for interior build up (darker resin with magneto comes from diff kit), so must have scratched oil pump and compass at first place. I must keep in mind that space for moderate the plane control equipment is rather small so would add magneto and rudder bar later on

The pump and compass look great!
RAGIII

Love the pump and compass, you must have enjoyed making them.
This is not an aircraft I am familiar with so I will follow this build with great interest.

Nice start, looks a challenging and promising build. The subject is one of the many deserving re-issuing, one of many rare birds seldom seen around. Good luck.

Nice start!
those details would challenge me at 1/32 sale. Impressed with your renditions.

So delighted to see you building this one, K! I built mine 2 years ago, but it seems like yesterday. Such a fun little project! You're going to love it and I'm going to love following along.
Cheers,

Yes, seen that one in completed section!
The interior is complete fantasy but pls forgive me this part of assembly as I treat this thread as fast & furious action being the springboard of Salmson rigging:)

Your cockpit looks Terrific K! Outstanding work!
RAGIII

The interior might be a work of fiction but it still looks great. Looks like you had a lot of fun with it too!

Nothing wrong with what you came up , looks really good :)
Terri

Good Day,
If interior is acceptable it is time to close the fuselage and provide the bird with legs

The lady must learn to walk in the proper way...

Being serious..the wing support was hardest part to keep proper setting and geometry, but finally it is done

Not sure how I missed this before - but I am pleased that I have found it. What a dainty little machine - and never mind the fiction in the cockpit because I doubt whether there is anyone who could reasonably challenge you..! What you have achieved so far is excellent - looking forward to more updates.

Looks Terrific with the primer on and the pre weathering started! I am looking forward to the next update!

This plane... it looks like the designers were ahead of their time Unfortunately they were like two small steps from greatness.

Not easy to make that silvery color look good. You nailed it!

Nicely done loz, it really sets off the rest of the model. I did the Miekraft one in 1/72. I will have to keep an eye out in case a CSM version comes up for sale.
