WNW Hannover Cl.II (Early)

[Davos522]

Hi Tom, as a relative newbie to the forum I missed the first parts of this build log, but I wanted to chime in and say what a beautiful job you've done thus far. I pretty much missed the boat on the whole WnW phenomenon, but have been lucky enough to pick up some odds 'n ends here and there... one of which was this kit. So I'll be taking notes, and looking forward to watching the progress you make!

All best,

Dutch

Thank you Dutch! I appreciate your support and encouragement. Those water-based oils are a real gamechanger since their drying time is so much more rapid than conventional oils, yet can also be easily cleaned up. I’m looking forward to adding the lozenges and painted surfaces to the wings and tailplanes next.

Cheers,  Tom

I also didn't see the early part of the build (I'll go back to that) but this is looking really good and looks like it will be a stunner when done.

Thank you Nigel! I hope I can do a good job to the finish line. Loving your Aviattic build by the way.

I really like this build! The scheme is very unique and eye-catching - you did some amazing work so far

Thanks! And having read through your thread on the Hannover, I agree with you about the underside. I cannot for the life of me see why they would go to the trouble of using hex camouflage and then change to stripes in the same colours on the underside.

The overpainting looks beautiful and subtle. This will be a beautiful bird.

Looking forward to the end result!

I’m glad I’m not the only one to think this!
