Rafael Berlin Posted June 5, 2020 Share Posted June 5, 2020 (edited) Hello from Berlin (Germany), I'm 43 years old and started modelling something like 4 years ago. I'm a very slow builder, because I'm doing a lot of research for my projects. And even if I have all information, I often don't have that much time to turn it into reality. But who cares, time does not matter to me, as long as I'm enjoying it. Nobody presses me. My first serious project was the Revell (Heller) Bentley Blower 1:24. Afterwards I finished the Eduard Messerschmitt Bf 109 E-3 1:32 With the Messerschmitt my interest in airplanes started. During the built I discovered beautiful Wingnut Wings models, and I fell in love with the Jeannin Stahltaube. I did a lot of researches, bought literature. In Berlin we have the only surviving Jeannin Stahltaube in the "Deutsches Technikmuseum". I contacted them and gratefully they provided me some special pictures. But I have to admit, it is a very demanding project, I never would have thought. Status now is, that the project Stahltaube is in its 13th month. I just discovered this forum and saw a lot of very beautiful (Stahltaube) models. Therefore I hope to get useful advices and information from WW1 specialists. I still have some unanswered questions. Have a nice day! Best Regards Rafael Edited June 5, 2020 by Rafael Berlin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corsairfoxfouruncle Posted June 5, 2020 Share Posted June 5, 2020 Hello Rafael... from the windy city of Chicago. Im mostly WW2 and Cdwar aviation. However I have a growing interest in Bi planes from WW1 and the the interwar aircraft. I too have just got my very first Wingnut wings kit. The Albatross D.Va I will hold off on its construction until such time that I feel I can do the kit justice as I cant rig very well yet.

Rafael Berlin Posted June 5, 2020 Author Share Posted June 5, 2020 Thank you so much, Trevor and Dennis. I just wanted to test, how to upload pictures. The first one I did with goole photos, but that was very complicating. For the other one I just copied the path from another forum, I usually post. That was quite easy. But now I realized, that I can't delete the posts. Hahaha, but OK, I'm just getting started. Best Regards Rafael Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
