Wingnut Wings Pfalz D.XII
« on: June 27, 2016, 05:21:31 AM »
Good day, I finally finished my 1/32 WnW Pfalz D.XII. I posted a few "in progress" photos in the construction forum along with the Pfalz D.IIIa I was building at the same time (which is nearing completion too). So here is the D.XII along with the same little pilot and back-drop I've used previously  ::)









Cheers,
Gary

Beautifully built and detailed, tastefully weathered, well rigged, what more can I say! Oh, the figure is also gorgeous!

Very very nice Gary! Great paint work, just enough weathering to take it out of the factory fresh look and the rigging is excellent. The detail is superb, and the coolant vent/overflow line and vacuum tube is a bonus! Nicely done and posed, the figure is a real bonus.
Beautiful model, a real winner.
Cheers,
Lance

Gary,

Your Pfalz DXII is brilliant - nice subtle weathering too.

Extremely well done Gary, the overall finish on the model is superb, as others have said just enough weathering, the pilot figure is the finishing touch.

Wow, your Pfalz is looking great. The pilot fits perfect. Nice , not overdone weathering. Simply great.

Beautiful plane (I know, i said that rather often wrt the Pfalz D. XII) with a beautiful paintjob. It's surprising to see that the blue tail is not soooo bright blue anymore. Using the same base and pilot again is cost-effective  ;D

Well Gary, I don't know what to add that hasn't already been said. And said very well too!

Your rendition of the DXII is just outstanding!

Looking forward to the continued progress of your DIIIa.  :)

Congratulations Gary on the completion of an absolute gem!  The
D.XII is just superb in all respects and the pilot as Des mentioned
is a very nice touch.  A thoroughly enjoyable and informative build.
I am looking forward to the next updates for the D.IIIa.  Well done,
my friend.

Cheers,
Ernie :)

Can I join the chorus of congratulation? That is a model of real beauty - the pilot figure is an extra touch that sets the aeroplane off well.
