1:48 Roland VIb

Post by Cherrylock »

here is my Roland VI from Fly Models, ultimedia, Resin gun and cockpit details, lot of PE parts, the fit is good but the bottom wing to fix on the fuselage is not easy. I realy like the wood barrel style of the fuselage.. :Beer:

this is a aircraft of the czechoslovakian airforde 1918/1919

Again a fantastic build Cherrylock!

And the wood look so real, again the propeller being a masterpiece!

I can never figure it out. When you get a WW1 bird, the prop surface are pretty much the same as any WW2 prop. How do you create the wood look on a bare bones plain old propeller?
