DaveJ Posted July 29, 2010 Share Posted July 29, 2010 That is incredible!! Your work on the engine is just a masterpiece, the wood-graining looks completely real and the prop is insane! I bow to the newest Master of WWI builds.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smithery Posted July 29, 2010 Share Posted July 29, 2010 Great work so far Ron. Looking forward to seeing the finished product. I plan to get this kit for myself one day, as well as their D.VII and Pfalz D.IIIa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSP_Ron Posted July 29, 2010 Author Share Posted July 29, 2010 Thanks for all the kind words all! I am truly enjoying this build and the previous Se5 build. Next it the Bristol in the stash then I guess I'll have to order a few more. I wish their Gotha was read to buy.......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSP_Ron Posted August 6, 2010 Author Share Posted August 6, 2010 Paint and decals are done. The decals reacted perfectly to micro sol and set. I dull coated it last night now it's time for some weathering and final assembly. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSP_Kevin Posted August 6, 2010 Share Posted August 6, 2010 That looks absolutely spectacular Ron! It's amazing how sleek that fuselage looks without the wings on. Kev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LSP_Ron Posted August 8, 2010 Author Share Posted August 8, 2010 Thanks for the kind words all, much appreciated. It is sleek Kevin, like a cigar. I managed to get some weathering started, the landing gear mounted and rigged and the guns mounted. Even though that doesn't sound like much it took a surprising amount of time to get this far since my last post. The guns are a little tricky to mount and get straight and level with each other. I have a PE plate to add between the guns then I can tackle mounting the wings. I hope the upper wing mounts as easy as the Se5 did..... Unless I get a surpising amount of work done on it tonight it doesn't look like I'll manage to complete this build until Sept. We have company coming tomorrow for a week and I leave for Russia/Romania and Germany the day after they leave. Cheers Ron Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Pratt Posted August 8, 2010 Share Posted August 8, 2010 Ron that sure is a great looking kit as well as a great looking build...have a safe trip and we'll see the completion of this beauty when you get back...cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
