Many thanks for your comments. But let's see what today brings. After some dreadful hours spent with Ez line, Gaspach turnbuckles, super glue and harsh vocabulary, the Rumpler is finally rigged  :o :o! So it is now time to work on the details like the parabellum, the long exhaust, fixing the tail surfaces and rudder. She's nearly complete but not finished yet as I will do some light weathering underside before the matt varnish spray. Thank you for those who are following this built , they are of great help, and to answer a question, this model is really easy going and has a quite good tolerance compare to the early WnW models. Next post will be in finished models, take care, cheers, jean. :) :)





Best regards from France.

An exceptional model, Jean, and your paint work is superbly done. I have this one on my Christmas Wish List and seeing your results makes me hope it arrives under the tree next week. Very nice work all round!
Cheers,
Lance
