hamfists nz Posted July 10, 2017 Share Posted July 10, 2017 Don't make it too good..remember they were built in underground bunkers by concentration camp workers in threadbare outfits in the middle of winter in some circumstances! You don't have to get all the rivets lined up and all the edges done perfectly 😊 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joel_W Posted July 15, 2017 Share Posted July 15, 2017 Bernd, the skinning continues to be of your highest standards. Looking forward to how you go about scratching out a super detailed cockpit. Joel 109 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

109 Posted July 21, 2017 Author Share Posted July 21, 2017 (edited) Hi, being on vacation I have some time for scale modeling and shooting my LesBaer 1911 ... I added both upper reinforment straps supporting the upper engine mounts. Shape and dimensions were taken from the Bentley drawings, the rivet pattern from Jerry Crandall´s superb YELLOW 10 book. I also added the finger strap on the right fuselage shell, similar to the left side. Bye, Bernd.

fightersweep Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 Bernd; You are a true craftsman. Your attention to detail is amazing and your build looks more like a restoration. I can almost believe that your Dora will be capable of flight! Best regards; Steve KiwiZac, 109, Derek B and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
