AEG G.IV Hi Tech 1/48
« on: April 17, 2017, 01:38:46 AM »
Hello!

This kit is nice but requires a lot of personal work!



The cockpit is very very poor in detail. I was inspired by his brother at 1/32!



















I have completely rebuilt the cockpit:















It is necessary to make the passages of bombs



The fuselage openings are improved (early)





Details are added with Evergreen











Painting begins









It is quite difficult but the subject is very nice, and rare on this scale.

A bientôt

Spectacular start, Arnaud!  I have this kit in my stash and have been itching to take a crack at it.  You've inspired me to move it up in the queue and your build will be my guide!
Cheers,
Bud

Modeling at its best!  Looking forward to watching your build.  I too have this one to build in the future and will be taking notes.

I have to agree with Andreas! You have truly nailed the cockpit assembly, additions, and painting!

Arnaud your cockpit looks like it is taken from the WnW kit. Superb detailing mate! I always wanted the AEG G.IV on my shelf so I will follow your build closely. I`m eager to see another update!
