Airtourer Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 I have started work on mine, here it is so far, not much but a start. Full build log over on http://ww1aircraftmodels.com But IMHO Wingnuts should produce one of these as a kit, this is one I just finished, it is in 1:32 scale and scratch built sandokan, TimW and Uncarina 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is a beautiful model you made. Also it is a beautiful aeroplane. An all round winner. Are you listening, WNW? Stephen sandokan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSP_K2 Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 I think a Taube could be a good seller, but I have no way to genuinely gauge the overall market desirability for such a machine. Referring once again to the book database, I just added this title, (thought I had already done so, but my memory had done me a disservice,... again). http://www.largescaleplanes.com/reference/details.php?title=3596 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimW Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 Wow!!!! A Taube. I'd get one of those! Tim W. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Peterpools Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 Holy smokes! Now that's one gorgeous aircraft. Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Airtourer Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 I believe the Taube would be a big seller if someone decided to produce one in 1:32 scale (WnW would be a good choice), it is a beautiful looking aeroplane and would be quite easy to manufacture in kit form. It has quite a complex rigging arrangement but it was not difficult to do. Des. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wunwinglow Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 I think WNW are making a new market that really didn't exist before. OK, there were a few WWI 32 scale kits, but I bet the number of modellers willing to have a go (or at least willing to buy the kits, which isn't quite the same thing, but it is what really matters for WNW!!) has increased massively. Personally, I had a couple of Roden kits in the stash pre-WNW, I now have a dozen WNW kits as well. Also, I have added several more Roden and Hobbycraft kits, and a bunch of accessories, decals, paints, figures and so on, specific to WW1 models, which I wouldn't have bought previously. Oh, and I still have been buying a few WWII items, so it isn't as if I would have spent the money anyway; this appears to have been an INCREASE in my hobby spending! Thanks WNW! Tim PS I'm sure a Taube would be good as a kit. As would dozens and dozens of other types. And I'm sure WNW are looking at all of them.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
