1/72 Bat project Gotha GL.VII
« on: July 15, 2015, 03:24:33 AM »
Good day!
I have started a new project, it's Gotha Gl.VII (Maybach engines) in 1/72 scale from "Bat project".
A bit of information pictures:

 











The model kit: 





I'll add a new lozenge from "Wood n' Wire"+Tom's model works PE sets for 1/72 german fighters. 



 I started with plywood emmitation in inner panels and cockpit. 


Thank you.

Nice start. I too am on with building one of these but I won't be posting my progress as I'm rubbish at that sort of thing.

Nice looking kit. Does the first PE set you show come with it, or are they both after market sets?

Thank you guys!
The kit not so easy as it seems from the first look.
The parts dose not fit in there plases. It's requed alot of shaving and feeting. Most of the cocpit parts are hiding after you closing fuselage . Regards.

The model is interesting and difficult, but I can see that you can do it.

Wow! Wonderful work, especially in such a small scale!
The cockpit is a work of art in the making.  Looking
forward to the next updates!

Cheers,
Ernie :)

Your interior is looking great! The panel could easily be mistaken for a larger scale!

Your cockpit work is very well done, you make working in 1:72 scale look easy, but knowing how small these parts are demonstrates your modeling talents.
