Title: Ninefest! Duo WNW DH9 build
Post by: drdave on September 15, 2015, 07:00:32 AM
Just staking a marker to make me do it. It's my club annual Comp on 19 Nov, so I need a showstopper. I was perusing the stash, refs and the paucity of DH9s struck me. Not many DH9s get built. So I am going to do two! 
One shall be the Lobster, the other a Silver Pheon scheme.

Excellent Dave, I really look forward to seeing these two come together.

Good on you, Dave, and will be spectacular, no doubt in my mind!

Outstanding! Good to see another Modeler doing a dual build. I will follow with interest as I own the Pheon Decals and the kit is on my short list of "Needed" kits.

by lobster do you mean a british scheme as in the brits are lobsters due to the redcoats? as i am sure you may know the colonist called the redcoats lobsters. or is there a dh-9 scheme called the lobster? maybe a red one? just wondering.

It's red all over with white zigzags.

Yes, the underestimated DH.9..! It's simply no Camel, nor a Fokker... Just ordered one; not sure, which scheme I like the most, so many there... Probably will do the Lobster; Hellenic Air Force scheme is very attractive, too... True, you don't see many built, I recently found one beautifully painted in the Hellenic colours on Michel Gruson's FB site.

I have 3. I'm toying between the CDL presentation Greek aircraft of Moraitiinis or the RAF Russian campaign one with the Blue Arrow down it.

Great to see you building this model, DrDave. Or even two!

Indeed, not so many DH.9s are built. And I do not understand, why. It is a lovely aircraft, WNW have produced a fantastic kit. Out of my 12 completed WNWs, for me this one is ranking among top three.
And truly, that newly appeared Greek DH.9 in WNW website is very attractive.

Great work with the red, Dave. Lots of subtleties worked into the monochrome.

I've been watching this one on FB and have been enjoying the build. The aircraft itself really didn't interest me until you started posting and the more I look at your WIP photos the more she's growing on.......time to head over to the Wingnut Wings home page!

I've learned a few lessons with this one. I'm going to do another two. One afghan and one dutch. I'll do more WIP photos on them as there are a couple of quirks best avoided.

The Lobster is coming along wonderfully my old friend. The red looks perfect to my eyes.Awesome decal application too. Keeping the stripe straight must have been a real pain. Looking forward to following along this latest project. Keep up the excellence.

Looking more and more spectacular.
BTW, I see you use the WNW proposed method to align the wings. Me, I was always too scared to put a model like this. Luckily, WNW kits are designed so well, that from my experience the wings got aligned on their own.

I started off in my hands to get the cabane struts in, then the box for the wings.

All done. I'll do some proper snaps later in the week and post them in completed builds.

An extremely stunning looking model Dave, you have done a great job, the rigging is excellent as is the rest of the aeroplane.

What a show stopper you've created here, Dave!  Truly scrumptious.  I want one.  With a side of butter.

Hi Dave!!!

I simply love it... that camouflage makes the aircraft looking angry and silly at the same time!!! ;) Great work!!!

Cheerio

Hello Dr. Dave:

This is really neat looking.  This is why I bought the model in the first place.  I should take it off the stash and build it.  Looks pretty spiffy in the red scheme.  Great job.

 Dave,
Well Done my old friend. Very impressive build from start to present. Fantastic rigging and an awesome paint scheme too.
Highest Regards,

Beautiful job, Dave, a real eye catcher of a scheme. Great work on the paint and the rigging really bring out the best in Her. 8)
