I have this very kit and am planning to build it soon! How did you get such fine painting on the instrument panel? It looks amazing!

KyMustang
Thanks Rando. I dry-brushed dark grey and white on the instrument faces and then picked out some buttons and placards with a very fine brush. Dry-brushing highlighted some areas that I didn't want highlighted so I came back with some flat black and repainted the "rim" around the flight instruments.

Each of the dials will get a drop of clear later. Check out my album on the Revell P-51D for another panel if you're interested.

Rando
Great to hear about how you did this, and I definitely will!

Rando
Very nice! I think you have the right idea of not attaching the seat yet since it's so flimsy…maybe I'll carefully remove mine. How did fitting that radio part work out for you? Did it go in like we discussed?

KyMustang
Thanks. Yeah it'll go in later along with the rollover bar. Also gives me time to scratch seatbelts.

The rear radio rack went perfectly above and behind the main rack. It fits under the horizontal "stringer" aft of the main radio deck.

Your struggle seems to be coming along in excellent fashion!!!! Keep it up! 👍

KyMustang
Thanks for the encouragement. I have four more of these Allison birds in the stash and this is the variant I like the least….so on the upside, I'm learning a lot for the others! 😂

Desert Marlin
True model building!!!

Rando
Nice smooth finish you got with the primer there. Gonna be a nice paint job!

KyMustang
Thanks! Looking forward to getting some paint down. Though I think Mr. Surfacer deserves more credit for the primer finish than Mr. KyMustang!

Desert Marlin
Mr. Surfacer works really well! I like using the PostIt Notes for making...

Rando
Looking really good!!

The weather was ok today to try some outdoor pictures of the finished Pfalz D.III.
The pictures were taken 65 kilometres away from the airfield of the "Bayerische Militärfliegerschule 5" in Gersthofen - the place where the original photo was taken.

Beautiful! And what a cool historical tie-in. 👍

Your biplane shrinking machine is working as well as ever Bugsy. Another one to be proud of.

Thank you very much mates!
Dieter, the pictures are taken outdoor with two tripods.
I just added some pictures made in light tent.

Thank you!

WOW!

This is a stunner Frank!! A gorgeous airframe and I absolutely love the paint scheme as well. Your typical eye for beautiful detail in all the right spots push this to your usual next level build. It is truly always a pleasure to watch one of your builds

I may not know much about WWI aircraft but I know a beautiful aircraft and model when I see one. Another stunner Frank.

Toll geworden!
Bin auch eine am Bauen, bin aber noch nicht soweit, wie du.
Will mir noch den Motor in 3D erstellen und drucken.
Gruss
