Tom's Model Works Pfalz D.VII/III
« on: June 18, 2021, 05:15:50 AM »
Well , this was a long battle on getting this build to this point were it is classified as finished . What a fringing nightmare this was and I still can't believe I let three rigging wires do me in . It is far from being perfect and will go on the shelf of shame . Not sure what happened to the personal markings for these are sealed but the accelerant for the super glue cause them to start flaking and lot a few rib tapes as well . I'm not fixing this it can stay as is . I will say this .. I don't recommend this for your first resin kit .
I did enjoy some parts of build that being the cockpit and I'm surprised the under carriage turned out well . There are many and I mean many things wrong with this kit . The wings need replacing with scratched ones , tail planes and rudder as well . The fuselage needs major work with correcting the shape .

You have demonstrated who is boss with this one Alexis, even if the kit did not want to give in. I think that the shelf of doom is not an appropriate place though - more like just the back of the display cabinet!

Congratulations on keeping at this one and not sending it to the scrapyard in the sky.

This is a very beautiful plane, I really like what you have done here.
Surely a plane you don’t see every day.

What a stressful build for you! But now you have this seldom bird in you collection, which is a good thing!
I'm glad you persevered!

Cheers,
Frank
