RustyNail123 Posted November 23, 2019 #1 Posted November 23, 2019 I’ve been working on this kit forever. I love the Wingnut Wings line of kits and have several of them. A tremendous amount of detail can be added to an already detailed model. Ryland Craze, Jonny 007, BLACK VIKING and 14 others 17 Quote

RustyNail123 Posted November 27, 2019 Author #5 Posted November 27, 2019 Thank you for the comments ! I use water colors and oils for the wood grain effects. popeye the sailor, CDW, Canute and 1 other 4 Quote
popeye the sailor Posted November 27, 2019 #6 Posted November 27, 2019 to think.......if it wasn't for Richthofen, the D VII would have been used in the war a lot sooner.

Seems ok to me Posted February 14, 2020 #8 Posted February 14, 2020 I love WNW kits and have this one pending. I always enjoy building their engines. There is just something about these old planes. Your build is amazing. Canute, popeye the sailor and mtaylor 3 Quote
Bossman Posted February 14, 2020 #9 Posted February 14, 2020 Rusty, that is superb work! The only thing I have against WNW kits is that they are so good they cry out for all the added detail that you have done a great job on, then you close up the fuselage and 90% of it disappears! Do you plane on setting her in a diorama? mtaylor, popeye the sailor and Canute 3 Quote Current build: Model Shipways “Confederacy “ Completed builds: Mamoli “Royal Louis“ Mantua “Royal Caroline” Scratch 1/4 scale gondola “Philadelphia” Scratch “Hannah” from Hahn plans.

BobG Posted March 6, 2020 #11 Posted March 6, 2020 Stunningly beautiful work! I haven't done any plastic models since I was a kid building plastic cars and airplanes. The talent I'm seeing here is incredible and it's a pleasure to see. popeye the sailor, Old Collingwood, mtaylor and 1 other 4 Quote Bob Garcia "Measure once, cuss twice!"
