Copper State Models 1/48 scale AEG C.IV
« on: September 09, 2018, 07:25:02 AM »
Having recently finished Copper State Models' first kit, the Dornier D.I, I decided to build as many of the old CSM kits as possible.  This one is 17th in the line and, although a significant improvement over the older kits, it still shows its age.  That said, it was a really fun build and I enjoyed every minute of it.  Well, not every minute.  There was some harsh language spoken at times and I think some new words were created, but that happens with most of my builds. 





















Next up, the Pfalz Dr.I.


Cheers,
Bud

A very fine model, Bud, out of a not easy-to-build kit! Congratulations!

Bud I regard you as the king of 1/48 scale when it comes to WW1. Not only do you produce models quickly but they are invariably of the very highest standard. This is no exception. You seem to be able to gild every lilly you touch.
