Brandy Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 (edited) Well, I've finally managed to get this one done. It's not one of my best efforts: the fuselage decals fought me hard, but I've learnt from it...I hope! She's good enough to go in the cabinet though....ironically right underneath Frank Luke's SPAD XIII - Georg von Hantelmann's 16th victory was Joseph Wehner, Luke's wing-man! Jasta 15 must have been unlucky in some way - Rudolph Berthold survived only to be strangled with his "Pour le Merit" by a mob in 1920, and von Hantelmann was murdered in 1924 by poachers he caught on his land...so sad to have survived the carnage only to be murdered a few years later... The Aviattic decals are great, but I did have a little trouble with them lifting at the edges - probably my application rather than the decals though. Engine and MG's are Roden items, and all wing and tail struts were replaced with .020" plastic rod.Anyway, here she is....Hope you like her!Ian Edited December 23, 2014 by limeypilot 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
azureglo Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 Now that is truly lovely: Great Ward birds look so aesthetically pleasing for warplanes. A fine job, especially with the lozenge decals. Anil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
