Guest Clunkmeister Posted April 26, 2017 Share Posted April 26, 2017 Amazing, Joel. Just amazing! I have visions of doing one of the famous Jasta 5 line ups, but this, unbelievably awesome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Clunkmeister Posted April 26, 2017 Share Posted April 26, 2017 Kent, Just the amount of rigging on one aircraft is overwhelming to me, and you're going to do it 3 times. 1 1/2 down and 1 1/2 to go. I'm just speechless. Joel Rigging's fun, ain't it? You finally get a mindless modeling skill, and you literally watch your airplane take shape right in front of your eyes. Use an Optivisor, lots of light, and tweezers, and you're good to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the encouragement! As theese are my first largescale wwI biplanes, (steep learning curve) I wouldn't call it fun just yet... But you're absolutely right, it's all about having the right tools, lighting etc.. What tweezers are you using? I'm also having trouble seeing what I'm doing, even though I'm using an Optivisor?

Joe66 Posted April 26, 2017 Share Posted April 26, 2017 Kent, Fabulous ! I always admire your work..! Optivisor has optional lenses. See what yours came with and try the next stronger magnification. Joe kkarlsen 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joel_W Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 Kent, Each aircraft looks perfect, and the fuselage on the truck is just awsome. Your diorama is going to be a master piece for sure. Joel kkarlsen 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kkarlsen Posted May 7, 2017 Author Share Posted May 7, 2017 (edited) Thank you all, for your interest in this build, just so you don't think there's no progress, It's because I have started working on the figures for this diorama... And the diorama base is coming along nicely, all my fears into, if the grass would behave,? No worries... Thanks for looking in...

Thank you, I must admit, it is the only way I can keep up the motivation, having a story to tell, with the help of scale models...
