Title: Pfalz family 1/32

I greet all members and wish you a happy and healthy New Year.
After an absence of about a year, I am starting a new project.

Great to see you back. This will be surely a project to follow.

You have picked an excellent pair of kits.  Will you be building them together?

That looks like a happy new year right there! I make it three, not two..... And will you be building them all together?

Mates thanks for the comments.
Yes, all three will be built at the same time, just like the Fokkers from the trilogy.
Several of the pieces that will be left over from the WNW (D.IIIa, D.XII) will be used to improve the Roden D.III

Hi Spyros, looking forward to this one too, I'm unlikely ever to get the Wingnut Pfalzes, but I am hoping to get the Roden IIIa sometime soon. Beautiful, elegant, aeroplanes, one of my favorites from the Great War.

Me too - although given my dream Pfalz project involves some chopping and changing, it's probably best I track down a Roden. I'd still dearly love to build the WNW oone day though.

Exciting projects! Cant wait to see how they progress! Pfalz is a favorite of mine even though I only have of them in my stash (D.XII)

Dear fellow travelers in modeling, sorry for the late posting.
The project is progressing normally, slowly but surely.
The idea to build all three kits at the same time was to take advantage of the spare parts from the WNW.

We start with Roden's engine. Not bad but not up to my standards.

You will also forgive me for my English. It is not the native language and I use a translator (google)
