Really looking good Terri:
The CDL finish really looks like fabric in the photos, and, per usual, the rigging is outstanding, nice and tidy looking.

Thank-you every one for the kind comments
Byron , the rigging is very easy to do . Have a look at Lars ( repainted ) build thread . He shows how to do this method , which I do the same way . Have a look in my profile on the pfalz D.IIIa dual build . I did a small step by step on the method as well .
Hi gyorik , no I'm not married , but I'm taken

Hi guy's !
This one is now finished . I had to lenghten the rear struts on the front landing gear , even after fixing them they still needed more . I used contrail strut plastic stock for this . The pullys on the top and lower part of the wings I made from stock rod and the PE parts came from the Part of Poland sets for the Pfalz D.III 32 scale .

After looking at your build, I think I will keep mine in the closet for a while. All that rigging is making me dizy. But, if I lose about 150 pounds (back to my bachelor weight), I might actually be able to get my fingers into all those tight spots. Better yet, I think I will wait until it comes out in 1/16 scale.
Terri, I think that is your best build ever. Give yourself a big pat on the back, and enter it in the MOM.

Echo all the above and on top of that adds some more dollops of welldoniness praise. This sure was a turnaround how you recovered it so well from disasters that would have stopped us mortals.

I think that Terri must have a dwarfed genie working for her. Well, it figures, she is a Queen; Boy, how does she does that. If I ever want to do something like that, I better wake up and smell the coffee, an expresso. GREAT work Terri, YOU RULE!!

Carl , I thought about it , but not right now . It's just not my thing .
Mark H , well I do have Lone Stars vac kit of the Taube and the datafile .......the rigging would be a piece of cake

Hi Terri:
I have to agree with Carl on this. It is an outstanding build, your attention to detail, the detail itself, the rigging, the painting, the assembly is top notch. Go for it. You then could rightfully claim the title of "Queen Terri" and we would all have to perform fealty. Truly and outstanding job.
