Decals for the WNW DFW

Rowan;

Is there any prospect for markings for this model?

Hello Eric,

If I can find sufficient photographs for alternate markings I would certainly like to do some. As always, Wingnut Wings have provided generous markings for each kit which include the majority of immediately accessible attractive options. I have to do some digging to see what else is possible. Certainly a squadron hack for Jasta 30 looks likely!

EDIT: A preliminary scan through the sources I have to hand indicates that there are some nice examples still available to do- including lozenge covered ones, of course!

In one of the archive photos for the CV late on the WNW site there is a nice comet and stars marked a/c of FA 282 that seems like it would be a good colorful decal option....

Since WNW has not taken up the option on the late model machine, a Polish DFW would also be nice.

Rowan, as usually I would be pleased to provide some photos of Polish post-war DFW C.Vs, if you would like to include some in your future decal sets. If so, just let me know by email.

Hello PrzemoL!

I'd love to see the photos you have of Polish DFWs. The Salmson sets are now done and your copy will be sent out on Monday,  sorry for the long wait, but I think you'll like them!

Rowan, Many thanks for the good news on Salmson decals.
I have just sent you a couple of photos of Polish DFW C.Vs. I hope you will find them useful. ;)
