Here's my latest one - a pretty much straightforward build.











Best regards

Great results all around. You may claim it was straightforward but we all know that resin kits are not by any means shake-and-bake. Hats off!

First one I've seen built, Xmald, and it looks marvelous!

I've always liked the Halberstadt D series and I currently have one on the way from Lukgraph. You posted that this was a straightforward bulid, but is this your first 3-D printed model or do you have a lot of experience with that medium? Are the fit tolerances super tight like most WNW kits?

That is super in every way. I do not build resin kits but I truly admire those who do, and even more so when they are of this standard. The finish is fabulous.

@xmald

Very nicely done - also the weathering - I like this ?well used? touch.
I also like the differences in the color tone - basically the same tone everywhere, but depending on the surface (fabric, metal from the hood or the plywood on the front fuselage) it looks different.
Bravo - very well done.

This morning the Postman brought me my Lukgraph Halberstadt D.II.
However, the ?full 3D printed? kit.
