TimW Posted September 20, 2009 Author Share Posted September 20, 2009 Close-up. The cockpits of these kits are projects all by themselves and are amazingly detailed, yet not as tough to assemble as one might think. Ok, apart from those control cables...

TimW Posted September 20, 2009 Author Share Posted September 20, 2009 A shot of the very busy rigging at the aft end. The elevator control cables were a challenge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pfuf Posted September 20, 2009 Share Posted September 20, 2009 Yes love the model great work the amount of cable's so many lol. johan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimW Posted September 20, 2009 Author Share Posted September 20, 2009 Thanks for the positive comments, all! Yes, the rigging was a major challenge on this one, especially given the very light/flexible nature of the large wingspan. The DH-2 will no doubt pose it's own challenges! Tim W.

Monty Python Posted September 21, 2009 Share Posted September 21, 2009 That looks really good. I would love to have a go at one of these WW1 kits but all that rigging would do some serious harm to what little brain I have. Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JRutman Posted September 21, 2009 Share Posted September 21, 2009 Very nice brother. That doesn't look easy but what a great result. I am sooo happy that a rich,famous guy like Peter Jackson decided to launch this line of products while so many people that have obtained his success seem to fritter it away and self-implode. Very cool and it says a lot about him,I think. JR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
