Antoinette IV

[teddybeer]

And if we went back a bit, to the beginnings of aviation......? But really in the early days...
From a Japanese manufacturer, a 1/144 metal kit of a Levavasseur Antoinette IV, with some painting works to try to give an impression of transparency of the structure through the canvas and "cold sweats" for the installation of the guying.

Excellently esoteric model and prototype.

A lovely little model and beautifully made. It must be difficult to represent the extremely light weight construction of the real aircraft in metal and especially at 1/144th. You have managed it so well.

Brilliantly done
