peterh Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 I've got a few WW kits in my stash and have delayed starting any of them due to nervousness over rigging. With a bit of patience and planning it all went quite smoothly. Rigging is EZ Line with Gaspatch turnbuckles. Bring on the Gotha! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kuro Nezumi Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 Lovely clean build! Well done! What was it like using the turnbuckles? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peterh Posted March 22, 2017 Author Share Posted March 22, 2017 Hi. Not too difficult at all. I picked them up at Telford a couple of years ago. They're easy to separate off the block. I just drilled a slightly deeper hole than the one supplied in the kit, dabbed in a spot of superglue, placed the turnbuckle in what I calculated was the right angle and finished off with some accelerator. The EZ line goes through the hole with no problems. I think I'll detail further with some brass rod on my next build. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gerrardandrews Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 Brilliant looking model, great paint work. does remind me of the old Airfix kit, and even as a 10 year old, thought how modern it looked compared to other WW1aircraft, I have a 1/48 Eduard kit somewhere in my stash😊 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clive_t Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 Very nice, clean build. I am strongly tempted by these WNW kits, but I need a bit more practice first! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
