Caudron G.IV//CSM/1:48
« on: October 18, 2021, 05:49:17 PM »

Good Day

It was great modeling journey within this build, which lasted approx 6 weeks. Quite demanding project specially in case of rigging which went trough not exactly in the way I was expecting but can not complain any more.

That's stunning work, K

Wonderful model Caudron - I can see what you mean about the rigging - certainly a lot of it!!

    Spectacular model K, a real eye catcher! The rigging must have taken nearly as long as the rest of the Build, and the overall finish and details are superbly done. Lovely job on what I would surmise is not an easy Kit.
Cheers,

It took six weeks to build that? Mate, don’t you sleep at night or which one of the dark arts did you use?
I am deeply impressed.

This is an extremely impressive piece of work. Just absolutely amazing, and as Andreas has already pointed out, to finish that in six weeks is hard to believe.
Cheers,
Gary

Gents, thanks for kind words! Indeed 6 weeks but I forgot to mentioned that I was on the leave then ;), so had lot of time to focus on this one. In regular conditions i.e 1-2 h per day it would be 6 months not weeks for sure

That is amazing - not least all of that riging. Super model of a very interesting aircraft.

What an impressive build!  There’s a reason why one doesn’t see many of these built when you see all the rigging.  Like others commented completing this in six weeks is amazing.
