Jasta 14 addict Posted May 7, 2017 Share Posted May 7, 2017 Danny, Thanks so much for sharing your technique with us. After the weeks drying time, do you seal the oil paint with a Satin clear finish? (50/50 gloss/matt), or just a matt finish as the rest of the interior would be clear coated in? Joel With pleasure Joel. If it comes to the cockpit, i don't use a clear coat to seal the oil paint, because it's gives all ready a nice semi matt appearance. I use only a clear coat when there are decals need to be placed onto the wood grain surface. Regarding wood grain surface on the outside of the plane i always use a semi gloss clear coat.

karimb Posted May 7, 2017 Share Posted May 7, 2017 Danny! Great progress and superb tutorial. Clear and concise. The "classic" way of doing the graining, as you so beautifully presented it, in my eyes still is the best way of simulating woodgraining and you are a master at it my friend! The only thing i do differently is to use a drying accelerator. I personally use blitz-dry and works a treat. I go to sleep and wake up, the oils are dry. I am impatient hehehe. Looking forward to the next episode ;-) Karim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joel_W Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 Danny the finished cockpit looks great, and once installed into the fuselage shell, is just spectacular. Joel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karimb Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 Danny bro the interior looks superb! I blame you for getting me hooked on ww1 aircraft lol! I remember once, you encouraged me when i was hesitating wether to start my first ww1 build and you said go for it and your build is the best example of how inspire others my friend! The interior sides of the fuselage are great with the linen the plywood and the natural metal. Did you use oils to weather the forward section with the wooden ribs or is it pastels or flory wash? Looking forward to when you'll start on the engine! Karim Joel_W 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know, i know......i confess it was a smart move to let you take knowledge of those splendid W.W.1 crates But on the other hand, it's a joy to see how you build and paint your WNW models my friend, really, like i said before, i become a real fan of your work and i mean that with all my heart. Indeed, i used just an oil wash to get the dirty look on the linnen. Greetz Danny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monthebiff Posted May 16, 2017 Share Posted May 16, 2017 Danny, What a wonderful looking cockpit......the woodwork, the linen, just everything looks spot on! Brilliant work indeed. Regards. Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Out2gtcha Posted May 16, 2017 Share Posted May 16, 2017 JUST got this kit! After getting the two Camels I wanted, this one was on my list, and when SB.com got it in I jumped on it, not knowing when it would become OOP. Really great work so far Danny! I have not looked the kit over that much, but looks to be typical WnW kit, and this is making me want to break it out again. Great work on the wood pieces.
