Wish they would do a Roland DII :)

They are certainly cranking out the variety over there... What does the overall WWI list of models from Shapeways currently look like now?

I am finally going to have to step up my building game now that I have my schedule mostly cleared until the move (Whenever that happens..) ;)

From Kampfflieger it looks like this:

Not really tempted by by the Pfalz - just doing a bunch of Pfalz D.III and D.IIIIa - but the 0/400 is likely to be lighter than the Skytrex effort so I might indulge. The problem here is it costs $52 for a frosted detail version, so it's either fork out the money or get something with the appearance of a large emery board.

Maybe I'll hold fire and settle for a few more Tripehounds and some DH5s. And a Caproni. And a few Bristols. Ah, 'tis a slippery slope that we find ourselves on :surrender:

We badly need some early war aircraft & its great news about the "Pup" :thumbsup:

A Pup would fill a big gap in the British planes.
Great:)
Would be in for a few of those:thumbsup:

Based on my previous experience with 2 Ca3, 4 Tripehounds, and a Junkers D1, I've just ordered a Brisfit and an O/400 in WSF. With the acryllics I use, I'm still working on getting a really smooth finish, but I think if I undercoated thickly, wiped off with foam before drying, then repeated, it would smooth things a lot.

As it is, I don't notice it - just my usual undercoat, base coat, coats to touch up mistakes and highlight, decals, thick varnish works pretty well.
