Copper State Brandenburg W 12
« on: October 26, 2014, 04:48:52 AM »
This will be my next build.
At first will you see the kit.
The resin parts a very save in the paket. It is the short fuselage with two versions (early and late).
The instruction has 10 sides with most of them scale size. There are also etch parts and instrument brezel. The decals are for two different planes.
What do you need is navy Lozenge and I think the Winsock Datafile.
Martin







The resin parts will show wenn I beginn.

I'm really excited to follow this build, Martin!  I've got this fantastic kit in my stash and am planning on building it soon, so I'm hoping to learn from you.  What scheme have you chosen?
Cheers,
Bud

Great choice of subject Martin. That's what I miss about 1:48 Scale, the tremendous variety of subjects and especially the rarer ones. I'll be following your build of this one with great interest.
Cheers,
Lance

I'm looking forward to seeing what you do with this one. I have this kit also, but don't know if I have the 'ship in a bottle, modeling skills to install the cockpit in the semi-solid fuselage.

I had clean up some parts.
Made the coolant smaler and a new cockpit floor from 0,5 mm playwood.
The fuselage will thin out from resin.
The second seat is wrong it will make a new one. The engine is a Mercedes and wrong for mine plane. It must change to a Benz.

Off to a good start, Martin.  This is going to be a very interesting
model, and I am enjoying the updates.  Nice work hollowing out
the fuselage. :)

Cheers,
Ernie :)

Martin,

it might be your photo, but one of the floats seems to be distorted (the upper one)...
