Gotha GL.VII(Av)105/18 - Bat Project
![](/albums/img/9/0/2/991902-24057-82-p.jpg "Here start my adventure with this Bat Projects kit: it is a Limited Edition with Mercedes engines, and it is a good/excellent real "old time" short run kit.
The level of details is very good, but in some area they need some "help" to pop up, as here on the top wing radiator covers: on the right I have already scribed in the opening that is still blanked off in the left one. | View full picture")

Andrea BrencoBas, Moreno, David, Mark and Spanjaard thank you a lot! @ Robert: yes it is a very peculiar looking aircraft, like many other German projects of the time it reminds me of the "Wacky Races" contraptions!!!

Robert PodkońskiWow! I have been convinced that actually she is bigger, but this comparison with Tamiya paint jar gives a sense. And a lot of rigging I see there. Chapeau bas, Andrea!

Andrea BrencoThank you Dietmar and Robert! Infact it is quite smaller compared to the previous Gotha bomber...

Andrea BrencoThanks to all guys, you really make me blush !!! I wasn't expecting such a positive reaction!!!
In the next days I will try to take some better pictures and post them as I said.
If you want to build a WWI model I absolutely suggest to buy some of the beautiful GasPatch Model products, they are a real pleasure for the eyes and are so easy to use that you will not regret and will forget of every other similar products in different medium.
Today I gave a thoroughly clean to the desk and regain the room I have progressively lost in the last couple of years... Now ready for new adventures...
Many thanks again to everybody

Andrea BrencoThanks David, I must admit that most of my builds are done trying to do that last B&W pic(s) looks more real as possible...

Łukasz GlińskiBeautiful, I'm always full of respect for people rigging these WWI ragplanes 😉
11 January 2022, 09:57
Andrea BrencoThanks Pierre and Lukasz! In the past I was frightened by rigging too, but when I discovered elastic thread it is not a problem, just a bit boring sometimes... 🙂

S MExcellent model! I remember this thread introduced the use of markers for modelling and it has been a great help 😄 👍
