A model thrives on its overall impression and not on that every little disagreement over the original is hyped up as a disaster

It is a lovely Parasol, Wolf. I like those A-H markings, very colourful and appealing. Fine modelling all around!

Congratulations on a very impressive smallscale model - I wish this would be available in 1:32 scale as well.

Great model, Wolf!  I like the subtle weathering too.  Red and white make it super colorful too.

Kudos!

She's absolutely stunning, Wolfgang!  That black edging is a challenge in any scale, but in 1/72 scale it's miraculous.  Congratulations on the completion of a truly lovely model.
Cheers,
Bud

Super model with a super finish. Considering that AZ models are not always the best you have done a really fine job on this one. Those black lines are just something to behold - amazing work there.

Amazing job on the Parasol, Wolfgang!  Superb paintwork, rigging and
all in the teeny scale.  Unbelievable!

Wolf,
Just realized I hadn't commented on this thread. Your Pfalz is a stunning example of what can be done with a small scale limited run kit! Beautiful details and finish! I enjoyed your build log and following your processes.
