Marek/Matt77 Aviatik Berg D.I in 1/33rd Scale

[NinetythirdLiberator]

I've just completed this paper card model.  It was fun and great to do as my airbrush is giving me fits just as I was in the finishing stages of my WNW Dolphin!  Now I'll get that back on track.

This was built as per the kit with only a few additions like paper seat belts, rigging, control horns, a fleshed-out paper prop by putty and sanding, some engine detail and 20 gauge hypodermic needle tips for the machine gun extension tubes and a bit of pastel under the wings where I figure dirt from the wheels may have collected.  A pretty cool thing about these models is that it's really, really easy to add that all important washout on the Teutonic ailerons! 

Anyway, here she is:









Thanks for looking.  Not sure which WWI paper model I'll do next, but it sure won't be long...

As Juan has written, you make it look so simple.... like the rest of your models! Super craftsmanship there.

If I didn't know it's a paper model I don't believe it: very well done and very realistic.

Well, building WWI stuff is difficult enough by itself. But doing so using only paper is a higher league.

Great job, sir!
