sandbagger Posted July 14, 2018 Author Share Posted July 14, 2018 Hi Matt The first models I made did not have build logs but then I was asked if I'd start on future builds. So there are models on the site without build logs but all builds from now will have logs, Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sandbagger Posted July 15, 2018 Author Share Posted July 15, 2018 Hi all, Many thanks for the encouraging comments - they go long way to keeping the motivation going. I'm doing a float plane next as I want to try resin water effects on a larger scale - we'll see, Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Cross Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 This would be amazing OOB, but that you scratch-built so much makes me hate you intensely, haha! Seriously, you scratch-build guys make the rest of us look so bad! Nifty job. Gigant 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree-that amount of re-work especially for the engine detail, for a basically accurate kit tells me maybe why WnW is reluctant to even touch one.

Dpgsbody55 Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 That's a very impressive build. Your extra work has really lifted this kit into something very special. Looking forward to your next build. Cheers, Michael Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sandbagger Posted July 17, 2018 Author Share Posted July 17, 2018 Hi all, I forgot to bookmark the various parts of the PDF build log on my site. I've replaced the build log now with a fully booked copy. You can select the required bookmark now in a PDF reader, such as Adobe DC, Mike Uncarina and Bill Cross 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madmax Posted July 19, 2018 Share Posted July 19, 2018 What a treat to look at Mike! I love the figures and how they have been painted. On that note, the hand painted camouflage and patina on the SPAD are excellent too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hubert Boillot Posted July 20, 2018 Share Posted July 20, 2018 I have had the occasion in the build thread to say how much I love your work. Reason more to say how fantastic the end result is. Aboslutly gorgeous vignette ! Good job ! Hubert Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uncarina Posted November 23, 2018 Share Posted November 23, 2018 Somehow I missed this, and just want to pay respect to an amazing build of one of my favorite aircraft and pilots! What you’ve done is truly museum quality. Thanks for sharing your work. Sincerely, Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fred Jack Posted June 5, 2020 Share Posted June 5, 2020 I’m also going to build both Luke and Werner’s SPAD. Years ago there was a company making a corrected instrument surround, which I fortunately bought 2, and I have the screens and engines, but instead of WnWs, I bought Roden, since you won’t see much of it anyway. For the color mixing instructions, I have both WnWs Salmsons and will refer to their colors. I am also going to use the new Nieuport 23 Belgium Shooting Star and also an engine and louvre screen to make a model of the Belgium SPAD that I saw at the Musee du Millitaire in Brussels.
