Udet Triplane Tri-Build, Eduard 1/48

[dtomko]

Thanks, Rick!  All three ready to be buttoned up.  I painted the longerons on one to simulate their being wrapped in fabric.  Rick, I think I stole that idea from you. After the sides are joined I'll add small curved longeron pieces to the corners around the cockpit.

    Great work on the interiors, Drew, hard to believe they're 1:48 Scale with that quality of detail. This is going to be an impressive collection!

Very nice, Drew! I have enough trouble building one model. How do you guys build 2 or 3 at a time?!

With George...how do you do that..??!!

Thanks, everyone!

Since I'm building multiple machines it makes sense to me to build at the same time so I can minimize my airbrushing and scratchbuilding sessions. I do have to keep reminding myself why it seems to be going slowly, though.

You are moving at light speed compared to my build rate  They are all looking excellent Drew! As for the wrapped tubing, I have used that but didn't originate the technique.

You have done a brilliant job with the three interiors Drew, this is a great project you have taken on.

You're not moving "slowly"! As Rick said, "light speed" compared to me!

Thanks, everyone!  I really appreciate the kind words.
Fuselages are buttoned up now.  I like the idea Eduard had with the lower stitching, but I couldn't get it to work.  The trench is too deep for the stitching strip and I wound up with either a depression or one side sticking up.  I decided to stick them in as far as they could go and smooth out with milliput.  I don't have the photoetch stitching I've seen others use, so I may draw in lines with a sharpie.  Still more touch up and sanding to go.  I also started cleaning up the wings to prep for painting.
