What an OUTSTANDING build !!! I don’t see any mistakes here, only perfection at it’s best. These WNW kits are magnificent, and look exceptionally nice once completed. I truly hope that someone scrupulous ends up with the existing molds and continues to make them, in the same fashion that Meng has done with their recent Fokker Dr-1 release. I have been summoning up the intestinal fortitude to build a few of the WNW planes in my stash. The Fokker D-VII, Albatros D-III and Pfalz D-III all come to mind instantly. If I do, I sincerely hope to have mine turn out only HALF as nice as yours always do. Then I would be a very happy man………………
Well done my friend. I pressed the “liked” button too.
🙂 Stay safe.

I will start with my usual (for your builds) comment, David:
“By only seeing the headline pic, I knew it would be one of your builds!”
This is totally spectacular work and the only mistake I can see, is that there are no mistakes.
Well done and BIG thanks for sharing!

Another reason to keep my WNW Camel in the box (for now). 🙂
Thanks for the inspiration, David.
