Welcome Torsten & Robert!
I've started the fuselage assembly and clamps were needed.

Nathan, I am following along as well. I have friends in eastern Ukraine, so very interested in this one. Kind regards, Dutch

Welcome Dutch! This build is turning into a slog. Clamps and super-glue "force-holds" galore. Luckily it is a tiny plane so I'm nearly done already, just completing all the seam sanding.

Working on the cowl. I had to use 2-part epoxy clay to fill a large gap on the bottom of the cowl that was created by making the cowl fit straight & level.

Looking good. Keep up the progress. The splinter pattern will be stupendous when done.

Thanks Dutch! Man I just realized looking at pictures that the wing camo is a mirror image for the other wing. It won't be perfect… 😁

Welcome to the show Ben! I've applied the first color today. Now off to cut masks for the next color. I've been spoiled by those pre-cut masks…
16 August, 17:41
![](/profiles/img/11761-776-s.jpg)
Nathan, quick question. Why not just spray the first color overall, then mask only the subsequent colors? Saves at least one step, I should think. Carry on. I am enjoying the show.
16 August, 17:47
![](/profiles/img/23842-243-s.jpg)
In this case I just got a little too happy masking. I even decided against my usual preshade since this plane's paint looks really new in all the pictures.

Thanks Dutch! Today I masked off the areas for the gloss black. The tan colored areas are quite small, but they're everywhere. Tamiya tape stock is going up!!
26 August, 17:32
![](/profiles/img/23842-243-s.jpg)
Well my gloss black was solidified, so flat black will have to do. Hopefully it will all even out when the clear is applied

Hello . My paypal account is garcia_fernandez@hotmail.com or if you prefer Bizum my number is +34647139520 . But could you wait a few until tomorrow?. I will post here to confirm that all is OK in the order.
Thanks for all
27 August, 21:27

Hello. You can do the payment. Remember if you do the payment on Paypal you must add a quantity due to the comissions of the platform for no national money orders. From Spain to other countries is 1,99 euros. From Greece to other countries i don't know.
¿whats your name? to add in the address that you gave above.

The option that i comment is to send money to family and friends. I think that sent money for a comercial trade is more expensive.

Sorry. I thought that Apostolos Tsiantos was part of the address and not the name 🙂. All OK in Paypal. If i don't have problems i hope send you the order tomorrow.

Wow Robert, you were very fast while I'm uploading and adding a description to the pics! Welcome!
That is not really a WIP album yet, but I made an experiment on a left over Pfalz wing to reach to look of the colored profile painted again by Ronny Bar:
Primed gray, added Semi Matt Aluminium, masked and painted two crosses.
The dark red at the front will be a different story ...
Then I tried different highly thinned blue paints. H322 was not bad, but do not cover the black cross, or only with very much paint. But I'm happy after adding a drop of light gray to the paint mix.
20 August, 20:03
![](/profiles/img/21997-347-s.jpg)
Welcome Ricardo!
In principle, this will be a replica of my last project, as it is the same kit, with some slight differences. And a different painting 🙂

I often winder how you choose your next topic for scratch builds! The subject matter is always something different or interesting - and the builds just phenomenal! Taking a seat to see the next creation!
24 August, 14:50
![](/profiles/img/26441-134-s.jpg)
Oh, this is cool. I scratch-built an armoured car too - nothing this intense though - so I'm super-keen to see this one shape up.
24 August, 14:55
![](/profiles/img/20442-422-s.jpg)
Thanks both. 👍
Capt: for this one I went looking for something Norwegian, because that was the subject of the GB for Jens. It had to be something I'd be able to scratch build (as I was too tight to open my wallet to buy something. 😄 ). Normally it's because I just stumble on an interesting picture. 🙂

Teabag-proof is a bit of a stretch. I suspect the insurance would have been void if they drove past Tetley's.
I'm currently making a pigs-ear of the weathering. No change there then. 😄
Thanks Alec. 👍

I'm not one of those people who claim to have a remarkable super-power...the ability to know what colour something is in a black and white photo. I haven't found anywhere which mentions what colour it was, so I'm going grey. Actually most of my hair fell out before I went grey but that's probably down to living with a daughter all those years ago. 😄
Oh yes, grey. I used Tamiya XF-87 as I thought that would be the most actuate shade of grey for something I know nothing about. Or it could equally be that I've got a lot of XF-87. Seems like a good enough reason to me.
I hope to get the completed pics posted at the weekend.

Ludvíku, i must say, that i am enjoing it so far. But there will be more challenges later( riggings, lozenge....) So, i will see. But i believe, that WWII will remains my priority 🙂

I'm a bit late in commenting do to my holiday - nice work so far!
Since there are some pitfalls: do you want a fun build or should it be correct?
Which specific serial do you plan to build?
21 August, 10:03
![](/profiles/img/23186-383-s.jpg)
Thank you, Frank!
I want to build 8244/17 of Jasta 54. This marking is, according Eduard instructions, just a reconstruction based on the description in the flight log, revealed in the Jasta Color book. So, in my opinion it will be difficult to buid it 100% correct 🙂 However, I will of course be grateful for any advice and recommendations
21 August, 18:10

Ok, on a Pfalz D.IIIa the engine is different. The very simplified Eduard (the pipe work on the lower end of the cylinders is the water, what you have painted dark red - but this is not much visible later) engine shows a older 160hp Mercedes D.III. This is especially shown by the valve train, which can be seen on top of the engine.
Two bolts on top, and the valve in the middle: [img1]
The later 185hp Mercedes D.IIIa was also available for some Pfalz D.III, and nearly all of Pfalz D.IIIa pictures shows this stronger version. The drawings I know too. The engine is a little bit bigger, but the valve train looks very different - four bolts and the valves rockers comes out of the side:
[img1]
Roden has a better representation of this engine (same sprue on all kits), and it is also more correct in size. That means I cannot get it into this model. I will use a Eduard engine from a Fokker for my second Pfalz D.III (which needs the 185hp), as it is the same size, but more correct regarding details.
No worries mate, only an expert will notice on the finished model 🙂
And regarding the wings: I strongly recommend Aviattic decals. The ones printed on clear paper (normal) and the ones printed on white for rib tapes. Or you use the Eduard rib tapes. I have some build logs explaining the usage.

It was in my kit but wasn't listed on the instructions. My guess is for a later release of additin variants. Glad it was there because, like you, I didn't know how I was going to pull that one off😉
