Here's my latest one - a pretty much straightforward build.

Great results all around. You may claim it was straightforward but we all know that resin kits are not by any means shake-and-bake. Hats off!

First one I've seen built, Xmald, and it looks marvelous!

I've always liked the Halberstadt D series and I currently have one on the way from Lukgraph. You posted that this was a straightforward bulid, but is this your first 3-D printed model or do you have a lot of experience with that medium? Are the fit tolerances super tight like most WNW kits?

That is super in every way. I do not build resin kits but I truly admire those who do, and even more so when they are of this standard. The finish is fabulous.

@xmald

Very nicely done - also the weathering - I like this ?well used? touch.
I also like the differences in the color tone - basically the same tone everywhere, but depending on the surface (fabric, metal from the hood or the plywood on the front fuselage) it looks different.
Bravo - very well done.

This morning the Postman brought me my Lukgraph Halberstadt D.II.
However, the ?full 3D printed? kit.

Superb model. Very subtle shading and weathering, not too much but perfect for an operational machine. Absolutely spot-on. Great work.

 I really love those 'one-tone' colour schemes and I think you have done a terrific job.

This is a wonderful model!

Lovely work in all aspects! If I ever win the Lottery I would love to do one in Jasta 4 markings!
