Looking good -and fast, too! Makes my pace seem even more glacial... ;-)

Thanks, Guys! I did a bit of CDLing...I still need to do some work on it with pastels and maybe some washes...but I put on the wing decals.

These are still drying (as you can see) and I hope they conform nicely. Seems like they will!

There is just something about those early crosses on huge white fields that shouts "victory!".

More on the fuselage next time,

Dan

Excellent work Dan with the CDL and the decals, you sure are moving along at a blistering pace

Thanks Des and Rick...this one is so fun to put together and so quick, I agree. Instant gratification. I just can't figure out why I don't see many WNW at shows. I guess folks are just scared of anything other than an F-16, Mustang or Messerschmitt!

Here are some more shots just to show I made headway. Mind you, the parts are just friction-fit together...no glue on the wings, movable surfaces etc. Just trying to get a feel for the look. I like it! I sprayed the basic scheme. No detail yet or weathering etc. You can even see some things needing fixes but man-oh-man...I like the contrast in colors and the sit is just lovely. I've always been a Roland fan and now even more so! Puts my Airfix 1/72nd job to shame.

As with all my stuff, it's nobody's plane but if I was there in 1916, it would be mine.

Even my wife thinks it's pretty! More soon...

Very nice work! The contrast between the blu/grey fuselage and CDL wings is terrific. The pace of your build is amazing, it takes me longer than this to pull the parts out of the box

Wow, Dan! That was quick! Didn't even get a chance to comment on the beautiful interior before you got the whole thing together. I agree with Rick. Love the CDL wings.
Cheers,
Bud

I'm going to ~~steal~~ take lots of hints and tips from this fantastic build for my own 1/48 offering!

Des · « **Reply #26 on:** January 20, 2016, 06:08:30 AM »

She is a gorgeous looking model Dan, the colours are very well matched which makes for a very attractive scheme.

Cracking build, Dan!
The CDL/pale blue combo works a treat.

Good luck with the weathering.

Lovely build Dan, as you have said the WnW models just fall together, precision engineering in plastic.

Cheers
