goon 191 Report post Posted January 1 I got some shots of my Pup taken this afternoon. Here are some to show the completed model. Here you can see the split axle method of adding to some 'suspension' to the undercarriage. There would normally be some bungee cord over the top of the axle and under the faired strut below, pulling the wheel down. I stupidly forgot to add these parts and it proved impossible to rectify. Happy New Year everyone! 11 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BlackMike Models 1,837 Report post Posted January 7 Excellent but now you have filled me with dread for my first WnW build! Turnbuckles, rigging, doped fabric paintwork and wood! What was I thinking of? Duncan B Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

goon 191 Report post Posted January 21 Thanks for your comments everyone. Don't worry about rigging Duncan, it's a doddle! I was terrified of it before my Pfalz but it turns out to be the most enjoyable part of these builds. You can't go wrong with this method: Rigging Guide Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
