Mmarchal Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 Early this year I build my first WNW kit, also my first WW1 kit. Enjoyed it soo much that I decided to build some more. Here's where I started. The next one, I decided to be a Snipe. The kit looks to be just as well designed. I am just a bit worried about the rigging. But it worked out ok on the Pfalz, so here's for hoping.. The only aftermarket is a Barracuda seat and some fabric seat belts. Ah and also found some 1/24 Maketar masks for the Russian insignia for Nelly. Almost ready for the first milestone, closing the fuselage MikeC, Jeff T, Zero77 and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSP_Kevin Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 Welcome aboard, sir! Very nice work on the Pfalz, and it looks like your Snipe is coming along really well, too! Kev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dodgem37 Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 Whoa, Dude! Bang-up job. Love that blue. Sincerely, Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Out2gtcha Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 Great work! The Snipe is a GREAT kit...................just watch out for the long sight that goes through the windscreen, but is actually attached to the wing IIRC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uncarina Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 Great job! I love the colors in the cockpit, and that seat looks stellar! Cheers, Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mmarchal Posted March 24, 2016 Author Share Posted March 24, 2016 Ah, thanks for the heads up Brian, I had a look through the instructions and see what you mean, could be tricky. Out2gtcha 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mmarchal Posted March 26, 2016 Author Share Posted March 26, 2016 Nelly is getting a prop. Don't zoom in too much, cruel unforgiving camera.... MikeC, Zero77, 109 and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

strongarden Posted April 2, 2016 Share Posted April 2, 2016 M, Very nice work, congrats on completing your Pfalz. Looking beautiful and you have a nice touch w/ the wood treatment. I've picked up a few WNW kits as well in the last couple years and hope to break into the stash soon. Thanks for sharing and will look for more!

Mmarchal Posted April 3, 2016 Author Share Posted April 3, 2016 Nelly spreads her wings. Self mixed colours, may not be 100% correct, but who would know anyway. Ps, Dave, go for it, these kits are great fun you will not regret it. Which have you got? MikeC and Zero77 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
strongarden Posted April 5, 2016 Share Posted April 5, 2016 M, Yes they are, pretty straight forward until maybe the uh... rigging ...ha ha jus' kiddin'! In the last few yrs l've picked up the Gotha G.IV, and the LVG C.VI, Bristol F.2B, Hansa B. W-12, for the two-seaters. The Fokker D.VII: F and a OAW, the RNAS Pup, and a Albatros D.V. Needless to say I probably have more than a dozen of the Roden, Hobbycraft, Academy, and Special Hobby in 32nd as well. I'm not sure I'll ever get to them all, but the discovery of the LSP forums is really a godsend, so to speak. I've been kinda lurking around here enjoying all these great projects, ideas, tips and techniques presented by all these great builders too! Heck I even have a couple Vac-form Multi-Media kits in 24th from waaay back by Marco Miniatures(?). Their Nieuport 28 and Pfalz III, if I recall. These should be really fun! Cheers and thanks for the nudge Dave Mmarchal 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
