VOISIN III, 1/48 scratch, pt. 1/5
« on: January 05, 2015, 07:32:49 PM »
Hi!
Here are some photos of my VOISIN III model. It is the first of five models I'm planing to build. On the Internet I found very interesting photos of Voisin in the Red Army use.
For the main and multiple parts, I made masters, silicone molds and resin casts. In the building proces I allso used different plastic sheets, brass rods, cooper wires, thin metal foil and fishing line for the rigging.
I used plans – drawings from the Windsock Datafile and photographs throu the Internet. Allso, I photographed beautifull replica in Le Bourget, Paris, France.
WIP:

Excellent work Saso on a very complex model. I scratch built the same model but in 1:32 scale so I know what you went through to produce such a masterpiece. Thanks for the link to your Photobucket library, incredible to think that you made 5 of these models in 1:48 scale, amazing skills and excellent photos.

Saso,
        Please supply details on how you secured all the rigging especially on the tail booms. Thank you.

Hi!
Thanks to all!
Rigging: I'm using ciano gel to cement fishing line on the first point, then strain the line to the second point and cement the line with small drop of super glue. To press the line on the correct position I'm usign needle and unsharp knife. For this system rigging I made plywood jigs, they are strong enough to prevent bent.
Sorry for my poor English, I hope you will understand what I like to explain.
Regards
Saso Krasovec
