WnW Rumpler "early"
« on: December 14, 2014, 03:48:22 AM »
Hi gents! I post some pics of my WIP on the beautiful Rumpler CIV from Kiwiland! This is a large airplane and she requires a lot of planned schedule for the painting before the assembly. This is where I am so far, feel free to comment, best regards, jean.
 :) :) :) :)











Best regards from France.

Very nice work, MS. :D The engine is gorgeous and the wrapping looks
first rate. :) I look forward to following the rest of the build.

Cheers,
Ernie :)

Truly sensational work, Jean!  This is my favorite Rumpler scheme and you've nailed it.
Cheers,

You have done a superb job on the interior of this model, and the engine is excellent. The fuselage and wing coloring is very attractive, well done so far and I look forward to seeing more of this build.

Gents, many thanks for your encouraging comments! My next step will be the start of the weathering on the upper and lower wings because, once assembled the model is too large to be manipulated safely! Cheers to you all. :) :)

Hello to all,
A very nice work, Jean. I always like your painting touch.  ;)
Et tu as traité ce Rumpler de fort belle manière. Pour un magazine bien connu, j'imagine... ;)
