    A very unique model and rare scale. I never saw such a model before. It turns out beautiful. 😃

    You did a fine job here, the Condor is an aircraft you very rarely see at hobby meets and contests and an interesting subject too. I've been meaning to find and build this kit.

    I happen to have the original kit along with all my father's kits from the era, my father would not let me build them because I was too young. Thankyou for sharing with all of us.

      Thank you Ian, without the group build group I couldn't finish it. It looks i need the schedules (the weekly updates) not to give up a hard nut project.

    Beautiful. Would like to have seen you technique for the rigging.

      Hi there, i'm glad that you like my work. My rigging techic? Well not the most efficient, but i used to it. I drill thru the wing, and i use glue from other side. After it dried, i cut the rest, and i sand it smoth. I use threads from a wig. Cheap quality new year wig is the best, because it plastic, expands together wit the kit,it stay tight.
      Here is another video when i use this technic:

    The Curtiss “Flying Brooklyn Bridge”…I had this kit…I never built it because the fuselages were a bit warped and would take a bit of effort to correct it and I didn’t have the inclination at the time to mess with it.

      If you not built it, then it is still a nice collectable item. The "Flying Brooklyn Bridge" , i didn't know that nickname, good to know.
