Hansa Brandburg D.I in 1/144
Hello All,
I recently did a build of Roman's Hansa Brandburg D.I for the Wings of War game. Had so much fun I had Janx do me up a re-color of it in blue :D To avoid re-posting the entire set of pix here's a link to the build thread I did over at he WoW site, Hansa Brandenburg D.I and Fokker D.VII In the mean time here are the final pix. Enjoy :D G1 |

That looks awesome! Great work.
I have a hard enough time with this one in 1/48th. I cannot imagine doing it in 1/144. Thanks for sharing. Jeff |

Really outstanding work. I am amazed at the clarity of the details at these small scales. Nice Job.

Superb model of the Star-strutter. I have a Lee peanut-scale stick and tissue model of this one that I bought in a hobby shop in Monterey, California, in 1969 and never had the courage to try to build.
Your 1/144 version is a perfect little gem. Don |

That's the very same model kit that I have, G1! Are you going to print the paper model skin on tissue to cover it?
Your pilot looks lke a real Knight of the Skies! A sterling character and a shining example. Don |

Don,
I didn't think of that before but that's a great idea :D I've heard of the technique of attaching tissue to a piece of card and printing patterns on it. Usually for printing German Lozenge patterns. I bet the card model patterns would work great :D The pilots I got were bought here, index They came in a pack of 30 mixed pilots and gunners (mostly pilots). I grabbed 2 packs to keep me busy for a while :P G1 |

That site is a valuable resource, G1. Many thanks for letting us know about it. There are some wargamers here at the USAWC to whom I have passed the word.
Is there a 1/144 Sopwith Dolphin in your future? Don |
