Title: My Second WNW Build: Pfalz D.IIIa
Post by: Ringleheim on March 08, 2018, 09:58:08 AM

Here she is, fresh from the factory.

I used Aviattic faded lozenge decals and one of the extra decal sets from WNW for the markings.

Very fine. I like that faded look of your model. Makes it look not so fresh from the factory, after all. Great!

Very good work, Jim. The scheme is very interesting and the paintjob is done great by you!

   Very nicely done indeed Jim. Although "fresh from the factory" you've added some subtle weathering to make her look real, great model!

Pfalz-Tastic!

It's a Pfalz done in one of my favourite liveries. What's not to like?
Well done.

Very nice work indeed! Are those tail stripes decals, or did you mask and paint them?

Thanks for the nice comments.

The tail stripes are indeed decals that come with the WNW decal sheet.  Like all WNW decals, they went down very nicely and did not  give me any problems at all.

Great work, particularly the lower wings - you've nailed the CDL effect.
