Thank you gentlemen for your kind comments. It has been a very long day today. So once again I am very pressed for time.
Last night I managed to get some work done on the WNW Pfalz D-3. I recently ordered some Quinta Studio stuff for some of my various Great War projects and also for some of the upcoming ones.
This is my first time using this kind of stuff.
These are two sets of semi transparent decals for the Axial style wooden propeller. I have one that is going to be used for the Voss Albatros.
This is a set for the Heine propeller. This is what I will use for my WNW Pfalz.
I sprayed the prop with white primer. You can change the color of the wood by using a different color base paint.
Next I applied the decals on the front side of the prop.
The rear side is not yet covered. Hopefully this will be done soon. I’m really liking how this looks.
I used a small piece of walnut shade woodgrain decal for the floor of the WNW Pfalz. The cockpit rigging is next.
I started covering the top wing using 5 color lozenge decals. These are also WNW variety.
This also happens to be my first time using decals for lozenge fabric.
This is what I got done. The Pfalz had lozenge fabric applied chord wise starting from the center. I’m replicating this using the decals.
This is a good closeup to show how nice the decals are snuggling down to the surface. I’m also doing another first.
I picked up some Mr Mark Setter and Softer. I’m using it for my very first time.
I’m happy to report that it is working very nicely.
You can also see how the WNW kit has molded in rib stitching. They will be covered with some WNW rib tape once I get the whole wing covered.
I’m having a blast working on this project.
As always comments are encouraged.
Thanks for stopping by and have a great weekend.
