This is something you have too see. Sorry this is in German, so I can´t understand a word off it.I just hope your German is better than mine. I know this fellow, and he´s just a friend off mine.Things I´ll do in 48 and 32 scale he does in 72-scale

I let my browser translate it and its a very interesting series. enjoyed it . thanks

Lars , that is so cool , in 1/72 scale ! Don't understand German all that much , but that guy does magic working in that scale . Thanks for sharing ............................

Kelly when are you going to start yours !

At this rate........ 2014 seems about right. I have a muromets also to build in this century. But right now I am fighting tracks on a Kugleblitz. of course could always be worse

Hello,

How funny, mr. Ösci states:

Zusätzlich angeregt durch eine Gruppe verrückter Holländer

Which means as much as: inspired by a bunch of crazy Dutchmen.... Aha, that's the Groupbuild which I initiated! There's 4 of us doing a Roden Gotha right now (used to be 5, but one stopped after a failed attempt on the fuselage). This Roden Gotha really is a hard kit, it gives me more trouble then Aeroclub's 48 scale FE2b, which I considered my most difficult kit so far.

Cheers, Nico

What a small world!

Thank's for promoting me, Lars!



Öcsi

WOW. I will be following this build from now on. Excellent work Osci and thanks for sharing Lars.

Regards, Dwayne

Hi Öcsi
Any updates before x-mas?

Larsa Q

Hej Lars,

that's a good question! It's not easy to build something with the sleeping baby on your breast (or stomach). With the new family member I have to find some new routines too.

But I have a few days off at X-mas and my parents will help with the kids.

God Jul!
Öcsi

@ Lars

Little progress, but I finished the cockpit and glued the fuselage halves together. If I find some time, I will have a model for the Open.



There are more pictures at

My build

Öcsi

I´ll be there Ösci, at least for buying more models, your Gotha is something I like to see with my own eyes. Gentlemen and ladies this guy Ösci, have his own Standards.
Thanks for sharing Ösci
Give the family my regards

Larsa Q

Ösci -

Just seeing this for the first time. Fantastic!

How has the progress been since the last post? Looking forward to seeing the wings & rigging come together! Skol!

Now if Roden would only do one in 1/48 scale!

That would be a dream come ture ! Hint , hint to Roden !

No Stephen, there have to be some russins for the 1/72 scale modellers too.

So far only progress on small details, difficult to photograph and thatswhy not worthy some unsharp pictures. But I will tell you if there are new updates (maybe later this week).

Thanks for looking!

Öcsi

Worked on some small details.

Started to paint the fuselage. It will take a while because I'm still a brushpainter (no space for a airgun).



more...here!

Had some fun letting googgggle translate my building report. Stupid computers

Öcsi

Looking real good Osci!

I had this kit in my stash once, along with the Illya Murromets & Curits Flying Boat, but decided to get rid of them because of all the work. Great job, you MIGHT make me change my mind!
