Is it just me. . .

or do the wings appear to have the same "sworl" problem as the S.E. 5a? One thing is for sure: with the Pfalz strut design, this'll have to be one of the "least fiddly" biplane assemblies of all time.

That aside, I think I'll hold out for the D.IIIa (want to do von Holtzem's). If I can unload enuf stuff on e-bay, though, maybe I'll just have to spring for the D.III!

Hopefully, the good people at Spada Decals are keeping tabs on Roden's new releases. They could corner the market on 1/32 WWI decals.

Ross,
thanks for making my day.
I'm with Rob on this one, I will hold out for the DIIIa.
That's unless someone releases a conversion set at or soon after launch.
Cheers.
Bob

Ross,

The Roden pfalz is Looking very good indeed!
But how about an RE8 in 1/32 scale?
I think we would all just die of heart attacks though!

I really like the Pfalz D.IIIa much better (more colorful schemes I suppose), but will pick this one up to build as soon as it is available here in the States!

Boy, you guys are picky. As for me, I'm in love.

If there is justice in the world, either Eduard and Roden are secretly preparing 1/32 Fokker D.VIIs
