Rick, my old friend, the Pfalz is just beautiful!  What a pleasing colour scheme and
your paint work, especially the ribbon.  Congratulations on such a jewel. :D

Cheers,

Every aspect of this little gem is top notch, Amigo, from your application of the lozenge, to the black fuselage ribbon and everything in between!  Truly superb, oh King of Stripey!

An excellent looking Pfalz Rick, you have done a superb job with the the build, painting and decal application, I love the blue you used on the tail surfaces and spinner.

I do have to repeat myself - that Pfalz of yours is a beauty. The light blue tail gives a nice contrast to the Tarnstoff wings - and I like the way the appearance of those wings changes with the change of light / angle of photograpy.

Your photos lack a bit of sharpness, though (at least the top one, where the tail is sharp, but the front part isn't).

Borsos, Ernie, Ed, Bud, Kreston, Lance, Mark, Bob von Pfalz Buckles, Richard, Des, James, Ian, Terri, Boggie, Stefan, and Ermeio,

I greatly appreciate all of your comments. It was great to have all of the encouragement after the glitches in painting and construction. This is the first model finished in over a year. Hopefully I am recovering from my slump  ;D

I totally agree with Ernie - but I would also add the sheen on the fuselage and wings is superb. Flat matt is not quite right - but you really have nailed it with this one. Very many congratulations to a master builder.

Thanks Stephen, greatly appreciated. The final finish is a mixture of Tamiya semi gloss and Tamiya flat. I felt the semi gloss was still too shiny alone.
