1:32nd scale Jeannin Stahltaube
« on: March 19, 2026, 09:08:39 PM »
Hi all,
Here is the 'Wingnut Wings' Jeannin Stahltaube, Serial No: A.283/14 at Aldershof-Johannisthal aerodrome during 1915.

The build thread is here:

https://forum.ww1aircraftmodels.com/index.php?topic=15244.0

Many thanks to 'Umlaufmotor' (Bertl) for spotting I'd fitted the windscreen to the wrong cockpit - sorted now.

As usual, a fully detailed build log, in PDF format, can be downloaded from the 'build logs' page on my web site:

That turned out nicely, Mike - well done. Exceptional work on those Aviattic decals for the fabric.
Cheers,
Gary

Gorgeous modeling, as usually from your hands. Taube never disappoints! Congratulations.

That's a fabulous build Mike that turned out really well. The rigging is perfectly executed and you really are a master of working with Aviattic fabric decals, the finish you achieve is  so convincing. And as always, a really nice presentation of the finished model.
