Nicely done on the rigging. IMO that's what really sells a biplane kit. I don't know what it is, but rigging makes a model look soooo good.

I like the rotary engine too. Very nice clean model.

Indeed Dan, impeccable rigging. I'm not so much into WW1 air planes but must admit T haf has a very valid point: The rigging is the cherry on the cake. The only WW1 plane I ever built a long long time ago is the Wilhemshafener Fokker Dr 1, 1;50 scale, including rigging. Completed the model around 25 years ago and it still looks perfect .

Thanks, Fellows! Lovely Trips, Erik! You should do a few more of those WWI types in my opinion. Maybe after the Dauntless and the Ju-88?
Cheers,
Dan

Gents and Genteels...


I started the main landing gear skid/prop saver along with wing skids and the tail skids.


You could say I'm on the skids...


More soon.

Thanks, Mike!


I got the axle on the whole landing gear assembly rigged. All it needs now are tires wheels! Keep on cutting...

Fine work on the rigging and the undercarriage, including the skid and the shock absorbers. It has been a lot of fun watching your assemble this beautiful model.
