Pretty sweet, eh?
Peter, save all the paint colors and decals. I may need a third J30 Pfalz soon!

Sorry, but you'll have to tell 'your friend' that I haven't found any Boom proof paint yet.Originally Posted by milcoll73

Lets hope so!

A very nice gesture Pete.

Here is a Shapeways Pfalz D.III of Lt Hans-Georg von der Marwitz. J30 decals home made, Paint Vallejo Game Color 72012 Scarlett Red, Model Color 70.933 White Grey. Pilot Peter Pig. Spinning prop from Aerodrome Store.
Love the contrast with the bottom . . .
Super job, Peter. When can I shoot it down?
I think we're on the same team so you'll have to crash into me.Super job, Peter. When can I shoot it down?
Beautifully done sir
Good choice in the scarlet color. Looks better than the color plates even.
The Aeronaut book 'ROYAL PRUSSIAN JAGDSTAFFEL 30' has a great set of color profiles. The ones for Marwitz are not as dark as I've seen on other profiles I found on the web. I got it as close as I could with the paints I have without any mixing. I trust the Aeronaut book as they do some amazing research for their books.
Thanks Hector. Maybe next year you can fly it at Havoc or Council of Five Nations if they are run.
Here is a Shapeways Pfalz D.IIIa. Lt Erich Kaus Jasta 30. Peter Pig pilot, home made decals. Vallejo White Grey 70.933 and White 70.951 and Sky Grey 70.989. Spinning prop by Keith.
Another stunner.
Beautiful work, Peter.
You must have quite a collection.
Pure artistry Peter

What he said!
I laugh in the face of danger - then I hide until it goes away!
Thanks guys. More J30 love to come...
You are going crazy doing the J30 planes. Glad to have one of them. Great stuff as always.
That yellow striping really came out nice! I still think I like your black striped decals the most. I hope you try for the red diagonal striped one too - though it looks like a true nightmare of a decal job!
"Spinning prop by Keith" - sounds like something you'd hear at the Academy Awards! Outfit by Armani...
Nice work, Buddy!
Great painting, Peter!

1st rate paint jobs!
REP guns jammed! You're posting them up too quickly for me to keep up!

Well, not super amazing but I am happy with my results. I wanted a few more Jasta 10 Pfalz. Here are my recruits.
First is my version of Aloys Helmann. Vallejo Pale Grey Blue one the Fuselage with Vallejo Blue for the tail. Decals from the Aerodrome Store.
I continued the scheme of different color tails. Next is Pilot Roter Schwanz. Vallejo Pale Grey Blue one the Fuselage with Vallejo Vermilion for the tail. Decals from the Aerodrome Store.
Finally is Pilot Lila Schwanz. Vallejo Pale Grey Blue one the Fuselage with Vallejo Blue Violet for the tail. Decals from the Aerodrome Store.
Now Werner Voss and Hans Klein have some wing men to go hunting with.
Simple and effective. Well done.
Thanks! I think the different colored tails make the squadron look pretty sweet!
Better add my latest here too:
Pilot - Lt.Hans Burkhard von Buttlar. Early 1918 Pfalz DIIIa Jasta 18
Model by me, printed on Anycubic Mono, Vallejo paints, flanged peg by Daryl (Thanks Daryl), Decals by Dom...

That's a beauty, Paul.
Really nice Pfalz, Paul!

Really nice job! Quite amazing!
Excellent work Paul, both the model and the paint job.
One more J30 Pfalz D.IIIa. Unknown pilot. Shapeways with spinning prop by Keith.
Very tasty indeed Peter - love that
Beautiful!
That is beautiful, Peter! Wish I had one!
And what was your technique for fitting the spinner to the spinning prop?
Amazing! Wonderful! Beautiful! Awesome job!
Thanks guys.That is beautiful, Peter! Wish I had one!

Jeff, you know your wish is about to come true.
I use an Xacto to open the hole in the spinning prop. A twist or two, check for fit. Repeat until it fits the way you want it to.
