- In part 2 we kick off construction focusing on the wooden cockpit floor, the controls column and rudder pedal assembly. I look at applying and weathering wood effect decals and ad the first turnbuckle rigging.

Fabulous work, Jason!
Nice skill Jason, looks amazing. 👍🏻
Thanks Peter, think I prefer painting wood effects though.
Have one to build..ill watch this build 😀😀😀😀
Part 3 Friday 9pm with Lave chat
I thought that business with the masking tape was going to be fun Jason, but full marks for trying. I must of missed that raid on Dover on the news in 2016! I'm still trying to decide whether to get this kit while it still seems available. Car insurance is due and my bike needs a new battery!
It was 2016...I think the Germans were trying to thwart Brexit. 😬 Great Vid Jason, sorry I missed the live stream.
Very impressive result, Jason. 😊
Thank you! Cheers!
Yes... WNW and Engineering.. two words that go very well together. Models designed by modellers for Modellers. Notice where the sprue locations are Jase.. they're normally in a hidden spot.
I have to say its a loverly build experience so far
Jason, I've found holding the brass tube with tweezers helps when feeding the line back through. Lovely build thus far.
yep I found it difficult to do with the camera, will have to try a different set up as could not put my hands where I want them with 2 tweezers as I usually do it.
Thanks for sharing your passion mate. The Gotha UWD is one of the many ungainly, ugly looking aircraft that's so wacky looking, but the real beauty lies in the fact that so many of these ugly ducklings actually held their own in the skies, quite functional, effective, and deadly for whomever got shot at as well as the one who did the shooting! The fact that some important indicators and dials extremely vital for the pilot to read were quite a ways from the pilot.......on the outer wing! A fuel leak from one of the tanks on the Felixstowe....no problem, just climb out of the plane at 5,000 feet and fix it while being shot at or ducking bird poop! Impossible to get a clear look if stuck in clouds or if some feathered friends decide to hitch a ride and block the dials; these planes are crazy. The massive wind indicators twirling on other parts of the craft boggles my mind; it looks comical, but these aircraft worked quite well, and although it's sad to see the premier manufacturer of WWI aircraft models (WingNut Wings) close their doors, there are still more and more quality model kit makers who are slowly stepping up to the plate to produce kits of what looks like could never fly as if it were from some steampunk sci-fi movie. This gendre has blown it wide open for us modelers to put forth much more effort to broaden our hobby horizons and really get our model building groove going on ( and get a hold of as much of the leftover original stock of kits without crazy prices now available---I bought 50 kits right away, some duplicates as they are so freaky looking) Thanks again for sharing as we really enjoy your work. Modelkit Stuff, you rock!
thanks for looking in and your comment
If you took the masking tape template and put it onto a piece of paper.Then use the paper as a template on the dark wood decal.That should work as well.Just some thoughts.
I have found that brand of decls to be very easily damaged
