Antoine Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 Beware, Rowan, beware of La Poste! Don't yell "victory" to soon... I know of a friend in Paris who is waiting for his LVG since january.... Waiting for a D.V, here, ordered on march 21st, shipped on the 25th. I'll tell you when I get it.

magpie Posted March 27, 2010 Share Posted March 27, 2010 Got my WNW pup and DVa on thursday. Went for the RNAS pup as you get an extra sprue with another fuselage and top wing with the cut-out for the lewis gun. Was 8 quid handling charge and 6.95 VAT from Parcelfarce. I can cope with that adding 7.50 to the price of each kit, still incredible bargains compared to the big Airfix Mossie and Tamiya Spitfire IX. I'm planning to start the pup this weekend.

Hello Antoine, Yes, I was there on Sunday afternoon. Unfortunately we weren't able to have the stand there as my wife was unwell and I wasn't sure my French would have stood up to two days on my own! A very nice show with some excellent skills on display. My host, Sylvain was extremely helpful in making introductions etc. Enjoyed speaking to fellow ex-pat Anglais, David James of Air Modeller Magazine, his Wingnut LVG CVI was very tasty!

Rowan Broadbent Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 So Rowan, any sneak peeks at your 1/32 Albatros D.V stuff?? Any little bones you can throw us?? J Well, with three new sets coming out this month and three 32nd Pups next, I've been a little tied up, but there are some preliminary details on the Pheon forum for two Jasta 5 DVs. More to come as soon as I can clear the desk! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

p-26luvr Posted April 24, 2010 Share Posted April 24, 2010 Wotcha mucker, Lovely init? See this is what happens when I go and design decals for a Hawker Hurricane..........First decals for the Albatros from me will be for Jasta 5's Ltn. Rumey's Devil with green/grey chequers on both wings and the fuselage - will include our first masks for the red stripe on the green tail as well. Another set will follow for a few more Jasta 5 machines, including Ltn. Wolf's Bavarian blue diamond one Rumey's top and Wolf's below: The tail masks will be available seperately as well, as from the box top, WNW are including at least one Jasta 5 option in the DV box. Can't wait to get my paws on this kit! Pups will also be done, but many of the choices on the Pheon 72nd and 48th scale sets will most likely be done by WNW, I think, so I have a few "special ones" up my sleeve........ Rowan, When are you bringing out the 1/72nd scale sets? How can I get them? I live in the US. Carl Thurston Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Repainted Posted April 24, 2010 Share Posted April 24, 2010 This is looking really nice in my eyes, Wolf maching is just heaven.Please, make this happen Larsa Later today I´ll going to get my new Wingnutters Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rowan Broadbent Posted April 24, 2010 Share Posted April 24, 2010 Hi Rowan Do you really have the time to build any or are u making decals most off the time :=) Sadly, I have great problems finding the time to model but I have started working on the WNW Pup and I hope to be able to show some progress soon! I have tried a number of ideas for the check and diamond patterns on the Albatros and I now believe I have a solution to making the decals so that they conform to the double curved tapering oval fuselage - and can be applied without too much difficulty. More soon! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Repainted Posted April 24, 2010 Share Posted April 24, 2010 Much interesting new, just gor home with a bag from Wingnuts including the Pup and Dv. Going to start up the work on them tomorrow. The bag also included Rodens Siemens S.This kit needs some correct colored lozenges, a hard nut to crack in 32-scale. Do you have any new about that?
