Dave, this is a great corrugated iron Junkers!
I will be happy, if my unbuilt 1/48 Roden looks one one like your model.

Cheers,
Frank

Extraordinary work all 'round, Dave!  Love the look of the guns and the exhaust, in particular.  Very realistic.
Cheers,
Bud

As others have written Dave, that is a stunning model and figure: I would never have guessed that you have been recovering from hand surgery looking at the photos of that model.

    That's a lovely little model Dave, and doubly so given the health issues you've been dealing with. It's nice to see you getting some time for yourself and relaxing a bit with this Build ................... keep it up and have another ready to go when this one is completed! :)
Cheers,
Lance

Thanks for the kind words and encouragement everyone. It means a lot to me and I really appreciate the support.

Lance... Thanks to forum member Ryan I have another Wingnuts kit already underway. I had stalled on a Pfalz DXII and abandoned it last year but after Ryan posted about his AMC DH9 problems and his determination to salvage the project, I was motivated by his enthusiasm to drag the Pfalz off the shelf of shame and re-start it. So huge thanks to Ryan for the motivation and it's proof of how everyone here helps one another with shared enthusiasm.
