WnW LVG CVI
« on: November 18, 2015, 01:22:40 AM »
I was lucky to have picked up this model just before they became sold out, and completed it using photo-etched turnbuckles from RB Productions and gun barrels from Master. It was the first time I'd tried doing a lozenge decal scheme, and used Aviattic's great product - faded five-colour pattern. The figures were nicely sculpted miniatures from Model Cellar. Thanks for looking!
Cheers,
Gary

Very nice build!  Did you use oils for the wood grain?

Wow! Flawless! I'll be studying your pics when I build mine. Have you sent these pics to Wingnuts?

Perfect, first-class work.
I probably should continue to work on my LVG - kit.

Wonderful job. Flawless is the correct description for this one. The figures are excellent and add a realistic touch.

What a masterpiece. If I were building this model, I would be overjoyed if the final product looked like this. Spectacular wood and linen, very fine shading. Thanks for sharing, gedmundson!
