Bill GilmanInteresting technique on the rigging! And, of course, a beautiful job on the rest of the model too!

Roland SachsenhoferThanks for your comments! By now, I have sanded, fillered and repainted the wing-fuselage fillets, you can see them here in there polished state, awaiting the paint. The two Spandaus should be pepped up with etched parts- the result makes me not special proud. But even done with my abilities, it looks much more like the real thing...

Mike KryzaYou have the right way in rigging... Excellent! Need a workshop with you....:-D
Rigging is still a mystery for me!

Roland SachsenhoferHello guys,
-Lionel 😮))) would have been a pity to throw away all that stuff after having done the camera?
I have finished my ?Roland? by now. The last steps have continued to be quite malicious and suspenseful for me- because of me being rather a rookie on this biplane-issue and definitely not because Eduard would have offered a bad kit!
I would like to show you some pictures of the finished ?Walfisch?;
thank?s a lot for watching and, of course, commenting!

Es-haq KhosraviNice Job! Stunning details! It seem that the pilot and his passenger had to stand up to use guns, right?

Roland SachsenhoferHello Es-haq, hello Mike
thank you for your comments! The observer had to get on his feet to pursue his business, the pilot could remain seated- as I know.
Holding a camera to the ground while bending wide over the fuselage of a probably rocking and rather unstable aircraft should have been an intensely experience...;o)

AckiRoland builds a Roland. Best combination! Amazing job. The camera is a model of it´s own, the propeller is unbelievable, the rest is champions league. One of the most interesting planes of the great war. Thanks for sharing!

Es-haq KhosraviAs a photography and old camera fan, i really like your camera! When i was a teenager i tried to invent! a photography camera, but i just burned several rolls of film! 😄 Maybe some day i completed it!

Siegfried MühlnikelVery well done, Roland. Was the camera included in the kit? It really looks beautiful. For the rest I can only say: Well done!

Roland SachsenhoferHello guys,
thank you all for your words and your approval! Siegfried, there is no need to get an aftermarket product- It´s a stunning kit supplying a stunning little camera... Did I ever mention that this jewel consists of seven tiny parts?
Thanks for the comments!

Album info
I would like to show you Arado Triplet?s little sister? accompanying recent bigger projects, Eduards formidable LFG Roland CII kit had taken shape on my workbench.
The kit is of wonderful fit and displays accurate details; with the help of a plethora of etched parts, the interior gets plenty of details. To proof this I show you pics of the tiny camera, made up of seven parts! 😮)
After all it seems to be just the right thing for a WW1 rookie like me. The applying of the rigging had to be well considered; I decided to attach all of the inter-plane rigs before attaching the upper wings. This worked well -so far.
Next will be the attachment of the undercarriage and touching up the severed fillet wing fuselage.
