The Pfalz is soooo impressive - I wish I could achieve something similar.

    Just about "there" Rick, and looking spectacular in both cases! Your paint work is particularly superb.
Looking forward to seeing the finished versions, lovely work!
Cheers,
Lance

Both are gorgeous, Amigo!  Now you're at the best part: Rigging!

The figures have been cleaned up, mold seems sanded and finally primed.

Good start, Rick.  I am wanting before long to try a figure and I will be following
your example closely.  If they are anywhere as good as your Pfalz and Salmson,
they will be stunning!  Lead on, my friend. :D

Cheers,
Ernie :)

The Pfalz and figures are beautiful, but, I've said it again, that Salmson is really my favourite!

Thanks for the positive feedback! I have rigged the landing gear on the Salmson otherwise my focus this off rotation has been on the Pfalz.

Thanks Martin! As I said above my Focus has been on the Pfalz. Yesterday I completed about 90% of the rigging  ;D

Ondra,
Sorry I missed your question earlier. I used Tamiya paints mixed to the WNW specs.
