Great subject en good progress Arnaud!

What is the brand of the tape you use, and how thick is it?

Hi all,

Thank you very much for your kind messages  :)

The suite, with the wings and the full cockpit (speculative, except the steering wheel, which can be seen in a photo of the plane).






Cockpit:













Everything is made with Evergreen , some PE, and scrap plastic.

Once all the pieces were glued, I slid the assembly into the fuselage.

More soon

A bientôt

Arnaud

I missed the initial thread, beautiful prototype models. Very interesting technique for wings building and inner details.
Ciao

Really amazing work, Arnaud.  Your technique with the wings was something,
but the cockpit work is terrific.  Well done!

Cheers,
Ernie :)

Hi friends

The Germania has progressed well, as you can see.

The fuselage has been improved in terms of shapes.







The wings too...







All final fuselage details have been added, including some rivets.

















Thank you very much for your very kind messages

A bientôt!

Arnaud

Outstanding work on this unusual bird! The fuselage really looks terrific, especially with details and a little paint applied. I am really impressed by the wings and tail surfaces.
