Thanks guys for the comments and welcome to the newbies, a sign of the good health of this forum!
Now back to business with the progresses I have done today: using patience and a lot of tape (1mm) I did hide all the ribs, upper and lower wings, then using a mixture of raw sienna and black of acrylic inks diluted at 80% I started to spray. I use more raw sienna for the undersides and more black for the upper sides. The pictures show you the process, before and after. Once again IMHO it is much better to do all you can do before the final assembly and some difficult places to reach then! Experience is one very good teacher. Now on the undercarriage and then the masts! Cheers and stay tuned.

She really looks nice! As one who is interested in this kit also, are the tolerances tight, making for some fit issues, or does it all go together well?

Cheers,

Chris

I was looking at a photo of the Aircraft in that scheme in Eiserne Kreuz und Balken Kreuz the other day and wondering if it was an option for the WNW kit. You have me thinking very hard about getting one of these! Beautiful work!!!

Hello to you all!
Work continues at a slow pace because I do what I usually do: fixing all the ringlets and turnbuckles to the upper wing, put the Ez-line in place to have only to fix it on the under wing when everything will be in place. The masts are now fixed in position using the upper wing as a guide and I have proceed to the rigging of the undercarriage as well. Then, once everything will be done, the upper wing will be glued in place. Thanks for watching, best regards, Jean :) :)

Superb work, Jean!  The shading/staining is absolutely
great.  I was sold on the Rumpler for a while now, but seeing
yours, it is a done deal. I am looking forward to the next
update. Well done!

Cheers,
Ernie :)

A brilliant build and especially the painting! This is certainly moving this kit up on my want list as stated earlier!
