Re,
You know what Bob...Now, you have to scratch teddy bear.... ;D ;D ;D
Best regards.
Alain.

Actually, WNW includes a Teddy bear in their generic German Accessories sprue G.

Looks good, Bob. Always liked that scheme, but the masking held me back. Looking forward to watching your progress. I'm still plodding along with my Jasta 30 Pfalz; hope to have it done soon!

Masking wouldn't be too bad if you painted the red first, masked with stripes with tape, then sprayed the silberglau.

That's the way Garry from 'Hannants London' suggested I tackle the red ribbons - great minds think alike!  ;)

Hope I can do the old girl justice  8)

Cheers,
Bob

For some reason or other i really like aircraft that include teddy bears. A really good choice of subject.




When can we expect photos of the finished model?  8)

Great choice, Von Bob!  I am looking forward to
this one.  I am not sure who is more Pfalzified,
Terri or yourself.  Lucky for us, either way, my friend!

Cheers,
Ernie :)

A wonderful choice of clour scheme and markings Bob, I'm sure that with your talents you will be able to pull it off with flying colours  :)

Things are moving soooooooo slo0000000owly with this build.

I doubt I will be doing the red ribboned wonder I mentioned previously.  :-[ Not enough hours in the day to do it justice.

Anyway. Micro update  :)
Removed plastic tyre from hubs. Replaced with Robson's Rubber Rings 

Drilling into the plastic tyre created a nice little freebie. Thin twirly strands of plastic that can be used for cabling, ignition leads and cockpit details. I love this hobby!  8)

See you in six months for the next microcosmic update  ;D

As long as they don't take you away - or don't let you bring the kit with you to the asylum - your state of mind shouldn't matter much!  :P Nice work on the wheels and tyres, I'll have to hear that little trick in mind.

One of the two airworthy Pfalzi in NZ has a variation on the Hohn scheme, sadly sans bear:

Relax. You still have almost two months left before you are due to report in.
