CSM Caudron GIII
« on: April 04, 2022, 01:12:19 PM »
Finally got the finishing touches on the Copper State Models GIII. Fantastic kit, equal to WnW in every respect.

Rigging is done with 0.12 monofilament.

Lovely workmanship on your Caudron.

The tail booms on this aircraft almost make you think this should been a pusher aircraft ..........

A Stunning build in all aspects! The rigging looks perfect and the very subtle weathering is also top notch. Brilliant build!

    Beautiful work on a challenging Kit, the rigging and finish are really exceptionally well done! Just looking at the rigging alone indicates this was a long Building process, how did it compare to the "average" WW.I subject?

Absolutely beautiful work! I have a friend who may ask me to build his CSM G.III so I'm always eager to see and hear more about this kit.

Super model. As Rick has commented, the finish and weathering effects are superb and the rigging is marvelous.

Very very nice. Fine shading of the wings. Great true colours. Lots of rigging. What a model!!!

I can only sign what is already said about your great model!
The french blue-grey looks a bit strong on the blue side, but this may have the reason in the camera pictures and looks better in real.

I had not built yet my CSM Caudron G.IV in 1/48 but I wish this kit here was also available in 1/48.

Cheers,
Frank
