Fe.2b early 6341 "Zanzibar" No1- 1/32 WnW
« on: October 19, 2015, 12:08:02 AM »
Hello,

well I finished the Salmson/Otsu 1 and a Ferrari 250 GTO I was working on simultaniously and now it is time for a new project. For some time I want to build a pusher and specifically the Fe2b. This aircraft is so.....ugly..erm no,....so beautifull that I just have to work on one, no matter if I go slightly mad with rigging :)
I was wondering between scheme C and D and finally decided on C because of the fancy asymetriccal wing painting.
I started some time ago and here are the first pictures, there is still a lot of work to be done before actually closing teh nascelle, but I was testfitting today, when decided to make some photos. SO here are the first pictures, as usually any comments, constructive critism or questions are most welcome!

Best regards,
Sasho

Great start on the cockpit, Sasho! This is the version I would do too, especially since I'm fond of a nice Scotch! :D  I'll be following also.

You have made an excellent start with this build Sasho, I love the honey wood colour.

Great detail Sasho, and your "woodwork" is superb! 8) I'm getting closer to pulling this one out of the stash, I have a feeling yours may speed up that process!

I concur with all the remarks made so far Sasho - lovely woodwork indeed. With one of these on the way from NZ I'm looking forwards to your further updates with interest  ;)

Sasho - I really love the colour effect you have on your wood - can you tell us what paint/varnish colours you used? It certainly has an extremely realistic look to it and I'd love to try to emulate it.

Great start BTW - looking forwards to more updates, I now have one on the way thanks to yours and Rhami's builds ;)
