Thanks everybody!

Lance: there's so little information about this "plane" (it's a hazard to use this word in this case!!!) and it would be nice to understand the path that lead the designer to such a weird shape... the quest for aerodynamics design took him to forget about usability and manoeuvrability, why?

Your proposal for "Most..." planes prizes is interesting, that would be a nice subject for a poll among the forumites!

Very nice work on this odd plane.
Thanks for showing,

Good job. I have to get around to doing the final touches on mine (decals).

Outstanding job on a truly remarkable machine.  Definitely one of the most bizarre designs of the Great War.  I have one in my stash and will probably build it one day when I feel the need to put something truly strange in my collection.

Thanks Jamie, Bud & Ondra. I appreciate your comments.

This kit was fun enough and pretty easy to make, I like the color I used :  Lifecolor UA 074 "light blue", equivalent to RLM 76. Lifecolor paints are really easy to lay with brush.
In the final photos the shade of blue appears to be brighter than the real appearance which is a bit less saturated.

Nice one, Antonio!  I must say, it looks like something from my childhood Saturday morning cartoons...

You did a really neat job on that.  Very convincing and nicely detailed.

Cheers,
