[Sharkmouth]

Which references are you using? Do you have the AJ Press Monograph?

[chukw]

I've not got that! My Ju refs include Kagero, Waldemar Trojca, etc- and the books in the first post.

Life has been busy- and unpredictable lately! here's an update, at long last.

Tremendous work Chuk! I really enjoy watching you strategize and seeing how you work around issues...you are forcing me to look to ways to be more patient in my building.

The desk setup is cool too...we got my daughter the cheaper Wii version of that tablet...she is 7 and really has a thing for art so we are trying to encourage her in it. Going to get her art supplies for her birthday in April...some day we may be getting her more advanced stiff if she sticks with it.

stellar and top ace work man! you always make it look so easy and now, after my experiences with a far easier to build plane my respect grows to new, unknown heights!

 

[tanktrax]

I'm not sure I can take another one of these awesome builds!

 

[chukw]

Take another look- I had omitted a pic and have fixed my error. It was the fun part, too!

Don't worry about that desk, James- it's not my model bench- and I share it with the mizziz!

Saul, I got mine at MidTenn Hobbies Good dealer, too.

Thanks, Jeeves- be careful, or your beautiful daughter may grow up to be a shiftless artist like me- oh NOES! I just found out that we can get Netflix trhough the Wii- whee!

Thanks, Laura- I hope I can do this justice. On thing I'm contemplating is the third seat in the cockpit. One drawing shows three seats- that's in the aufklarer L model, but I'm building the K bomber and think that the bombardier would operate the sight prone in typical Luftwaffe fashion. That would mean a folding seat, wouldn't it? In any case, the kit only includes two seats, with simple sqaure box for the third. I may go nuts and build tubing structures for the pilot and gunner, and go with a simple, folded seat for the bombardier. Decisions, decisions!

Hang on, Trax- it's only gonna get wilder!

Nice work as expected!! The clay in the canopy thing will help me out.

top, as always !

This tablet is a nice one, do you know if there is software for Linux too?

 

[Jeeves]

I should be so lucky! I have some students who are pretty talented artists as well...hope they do well!

Yes Netflix Wii is awesome...all kinds of great movies and TV shows to catch up on while working out!

 

[Sherman 18]

WOW.

 

[chukw]

Thanks, Kameraden! Martin, I have no idea about Wacom drivers for Linux, but that should be available at their site.

I would have posted this last week if not for a monsoon rain that caused a short in an outside receptacle that could have burned down the house! As it is, all is well with just a few scorch marks- whew! I was two-thirds done with the intro cartoon, too- lost that when the circuit breaker tripped. Oh, well, Hauptmann Hannah's back to introduce this much-delayed update- read on!

 

[Sharkmouth]

Fabulous and productive! Even with adversity... well done!

Regards,

 

[MrT]

Ya is wundbar!!!

That stuff is thick! Nice work, I know what tool just made it to the top of my shopping list. You're a brave man Sir Chuck, inspiring work once again.

 

[Jeeves]

Phew! I didn't do anything and I am sweating!

 

[jknaus]

Another awesome update.

Very stunning Chuck. How strange since I have been wondering about that bender all week. Maybe I could use one. Are the smaller bends small enough to be useful in 1/72 scale ?
