wnw Pfalz D.IIIa with pheon decals....
« on: April 23, 2013, 12:00:41 AM »
this is what i am planning on being my next project



hopefully i can get it to look something like this .....





using the pheon decal set.

I seen it and the first thing that crossed my mind was that it looked like a ferrari  :)

It may be a while till i actually get started as i am collecting paints and so on before i start.

what i am thinking of doing is having a go with some Gaspatch turnbuckles, so would i be right in thinking it's the TB 01 type i need for a Pflaz?

many thanks

Michael

most of the cockpit done just need to do a bit of a pin wash here and there.

sharp on that model.  Looking forward to seeing
