Hello everybody!
I'm done with painting the Udet's plane.
Laid decals some of them from the set, while others need to print, because the supplied decals with crosses inexplicably after laying on lozenge could not stick and become to dust.
I tried to imitate two different lacquer coatings for wood and fabric with help of two types of varnish :satin + matte and satin + gloss , the result is not exactly what I expected but acceptable.











Best Regards
Hristo

Those are just stunning.  I still can't believe they are 1/72!

Brilliant work, Hristo!  Looks like a WNW kit, superbly built and painted.
Cheers,

These aircraft are absolute masterpieces Hristo, and I still find it hard to believe they're 1/72 scale. The overall project, once finished, will be spectacular!
