CSM Rumpler 6.B1 float plane
« on: November 24, 2019, 10:29:32 AM »
I started this a looooooooong time ago and got burnt out on it . It was very challenging kit to say the least and I ended up getting a donor kit from a forum member just to get this far . It is at the painting stage and the all struts are all made as well , just waiting paint . Well time to get this one finally finished . Will post pic's later of the details .

Nice to see that you have been able to return to this at last. Always a good feeling when a shelf queen is displaced into a display cabinet.

I'm hoping this time around I will be able to get her finished and she will be able to join the rest on the completion shelf .

Here is the low down on what has been done so far . Most of the pit is scratched build with the PE parts coming from the kit . Seat belts are made by flatting fine lead wire . The upper decking covering the engine is from the donor kit and same with the floats as well . The struts are set for paint , but I still need to pin a few first . Lower surfaces I still got one more coat of light blue to apply blending in the weathering done so far and still have the finish off the main flight controls on the upper wing . Then the white fields for the national markings . Most of the PE parts will not be used , just to damn small .

I'm so glad to see this built. It's one of my favorite aircraft. You're doing a great job so far.

Nice to see a CSM 1/48 scale kit being put together. I think the ultra-fine detail in this scale is Frank's territory.
