I'm always amazed at these creations that are not from a kit!  Excellent!!! and so cool to see an aircraft in model form that you would not usually see. 
I'm also looking forward to seeing more views of your AEG...

Take care

Thanks! Your encouraging support is a fine help for the projects to come. Actually, this AEG is one of my better models in my opinion too?

First class model - the more so as it is scratch built.

Thanks!!!  I am humbled by the overwhelmingly positive comments... Yes, the B-types are a great subject. I actually have built quite a few over the years. I have a Rumpler B.1 and DFW B.1 in the cabinet, also Albatros B.I and B.II. I feel quite tempted by the LVG B-series now

cheers, Skyhook

What a lovely model!

The LVG B.I was the most important military type in Germany from 1913 to mid 1915.
Unfortunetly the drawngs in the Datafile show a fuselage way too short, it is more B.II and C.II. The 144th scale drawing in the Kr?schel/St?tzer book is better overall but needs some correction of the nose.
If you like I could prepare a documentation as I have researched the type since many years and collected  quite some material including a new basic fuselage drawing.
