Title: WNW Roland D.VIb
Post by: Pierre Giustiniani on December 14, 2014, 10:44:19 PM: Well, well; the only interest in building the D.VIb is to get others schemes than the D.VIa. Otherwise the two kits are the same except ailerons, elevators and very little change in the engine.
Then i have chosen the scheme of Emil Schape's aircraft; original and colorful.
Decals are from Aviattic; excellents as usual....! I will make a mix of 4 & 5 lozenges patterns for wing and actuators as quite often described.
Figures are from Wing cockpit. I have to change left hand and to refine the right one of the mechanic. I'm about unpainting him as i'm not very satisfied.
Cheers
Pierre

Not so much references; one picture on WNW site (with a close-up on machine guns), one profile by R.N Pearson in 1999 and two illustrations by Mark Karvon. Not so much also on Emil Schape.

Truly magnificent work, Pierre! I'm so delighted to see you doing this scheme. I see you've reached the same research dead end that I have with this scheme and it's pilot. This is one I've wanted to do for a very long time in 1/48 scale. Now you've inspired me to move the start date up on this one.

I've been unable to find one so far. I'll contact Bob Pearson and ask him if he know of any other photos. I'd like to know how he determined that it was a b model and not an a. By the way, Pierre, I love your idea for a diorama. I would never have thought of a headless man choking the pilot. ;)

While the headless mechanic went back to the paint workshop a little step forward with the plates of the engine (dry fit) and some more weathering.

Nextstep with the undercarriage.
I have chosen to not follow the profile as there are no photographic evidence for the yellow wheel cover. I have chosen the most used on the Roland i.e. lozenges pattern. i used again the fantastics decals from Aviattic.
Dry fit on her before the complete weathering.

Cheers

Thanks for pointing that out, Bud. A newbie like me would not have realized what that was without your sharp eye guiding it.
Yeah, man, it is that sort of attention to detail that makes a very fine build into a great one.

As I'm a carpet worker (initiated will understand) some very little hairs are always flying. I removed all those who were glued to the cover of the wheel..... I need then to use some washes and pigments for harmonizing the weathering on the undercarriage

This scheme should be the one of Emil Schape.
Now it's time to provide her some stuff to fly...Propeller and spinner done. Painting of propeller is time consummating (and with a lot of jammy dog's tape) but it's worth as it's one of the "eye catcher part". Prince august acrylics followed by oil paint and yellow varnish.
Cheers

Post by: Pierre Giustiniani on December 29, 2014, 01:50:10 PM: Thanks !!
Xan it's not boring at all. It's a pleasure to share ;)
First of all a thin layer of "white skull" primer (citadel).
Then thin coat of Prince August air (sand: 75)
Then masking (for the first prop I used Jammy Dog tape, for the second I cut elliptic shape directly in Tamiya tape). It' the longest stage.
Then a coat of Prince August Air (burnt earth:40).
Then a mix of oil paint (ocre de chair, terre de Sienne, ombre brûlée) diluted with oil siccative to harmonize colors.
Finally I used yellow or/and orange Tamiya veener.
Cheers
Pierre

Richard: i will make a little pause with kits now. i will probably paint the mechanic as soon as i find the good color for the uniform. I was not very satisfied with my "feldgrau". i would like also make a decent base for showing the models, and then i would like finally to build and paint your fuel cart.....
For the next one, nothing is decided yet. I have many wishes but all have pro and cons....I would like to build a Felix, or a Gotha but i should assume to do just one kit in 2015 as i'm not a very fast kit maker. I would like also to do something for Telford's contest... So i have to decide...and wait a little bit to see if any surprise is coming in the mean time....
Cheers
Pierre

Pour Telford, fais un Gotha en vol qui bombarde Londres et tu casseras la baraque... ;)
For Telford, build a flying Gotha upper London et you'll be best of show.

I can't see how you could improve on that - really top notch...
