seiran01 Posted August 24, 2017 Share Posted August 24, 2017 WNW Stahltaube is online on the front page of the website with an October release date. Sprue shots and instructions are up now too. Kinda boring marking options, but man does the thing look beautiful. Rick Griewski 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ringleheim Posted August 24, 2017 Share Posted August 24, 2017 Color scheme #2 featuring "Yellow rubberized fabric" looks interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Smitty44 Posted August 24, 2017 Share Posted August 24, 2017 Definately grabbing one, but this is a diversionary tactic. Usually they drop new kits closer to Christmas or right after..something else is coming! Well I really have no idea what I'm talking about, but I would love some Christmas suprises!

Rick Griewski Posted August 24, 2017 Share Posted August 24, 2017 I am in for one <he says rubbing his hands with glee>. The plane is interesting enough for me. It is essentially a kite and not much was done with respect to camo or decoration. I have all the Albatros kits for that. It will be a fun challenge to get the look of the wings right. All the rigging will be more of a not so fun challenge. I too hope for the surprise before Christmas. How about a French "kite" from the same pre-war design era? Men in airplanes shooting at each other with rifles while flying around in motorized kites is an interesting dualist theme. Rick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can only imagine any number of cool "what if's" for Christmas, and if they do it this year, I'm sure it'll be awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LSP_Kevin Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 The book looks interesting, but I can't really say that I've looked at it much, but then I've only had it a couple of days now. It's a great book; I reviewed it here when it was first released. One of the best tutorial-based modelling books out there, in my opinion.

LSP_K2 Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 It was your mentioning it on facelook a few days ago, Kev, that prompted me to chase down a copy of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Clunkmeister Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 The Taube should actually be easy enough to rig. It's absolutely two dimensional, no depth, just front to back and side to side. One line at a time..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thierry laurent Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 BTW the book is still available. I got mine from Blurb some months ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSP_Kevin Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 BTW the book is still available. I got mine from Blurb some months ago. It's just been reprinted, Thierry, and Volume 2 is due out later this year. Kev Rick Griewski 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeanKB Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 There's some really good deals there on "damaged" kits. Shipping is horrendous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
