williamj Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 (edited) Well seeing that we haven't built a Biplane for a very long time,why not. The WNW kit is one of the nicest kits I've mauled ,so we picked up a lot of aftermarket to do it justice..the Master Spandau's in brass are beautiful (just got them). So off we go.

Wolf Buddee Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 Way to go Bill, yer in with an Albatros! Nice collection of aftermarket stuff too. Just a friendly warning though, when you start getting in to the Taurus Models bits, you're going to need a very nice big magnifying lamp. You'll see what I mean......... Looking forward to seeing what you do with this one Bill. Cheers, Wolf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just type HGW in their search. Edited March 13, 2013 by williamj Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

williamj Posted March 21, 2013 Author Share Posted March 21, 2013 (edited) Finally got a good start on this P.O.S kit (perfectly organized and straightforward)...Everything fits beautifully and is delicately scaled to a fine degree..So....... Hell...aint nothin for me to do except paint it and put it together.Tried LSP Mike's (sorry) Humbrol sand with a wash of oils over it,for interior(which you can't see much of when it's closed up anyhow.

Wolf Buddee Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 Very nicely done Bill. The wood grain effect looks awesome. You're definitely off to a good start on this one. Matter of fact I think I'll send you my fuselage halves so you can perfect the technique. You know what they say about practice eh?
