    @@AryanSakaria greetings! Glad to have you aboard. First question answered: yes regular water based paint is fine. The key is having a mix and do I test brush of the color on Card stock and wait for it to dry. Lol and see if it is close enough. Question 2: I use Aleen's tacky glue. Hands down the best there is. At least in my experience. You can see it in the beginners Guide on fiddlers green model series. Good luck on your build. One love.

    You can tell the difference between the typhoon and tempest best by looking at the front of the stabilizer, where its attached to the fuselage. With the typhoon this is a sharp corner, but with the tempest, its rounded of. Also they have very different wing shape.

    It's always a pleasure to see your work Neil. The rigging was very complicated because there were no control surfaces, the whole wing was deformed as the designers had copied the wings of birds. Historically the "Taube" was used at the very beginning of WW1 in 1914 to bomb Paris with light bombs. As it was very inefficient the parisians were making fun of it. Thanks for the video !
