Description
In this 361-page eBook, award-winning modeller Gary Boxall describes the building, painting, and finishing process of not one Wingnut Wings Pfalz D.IIIa kit, but three!
The first build uses Aviattic lozenge decals to portray Eugen Siempelkamp’s Pfalz D.IIIa, and is a comprehensive guide to building the model.
For the second build, Gary opts for a fully-painted finish to portray the markings of Hans-Georg von der Marwitz’s Pfalz D.IIIa. Since the construction of the two models is almost identical, we’ve limited coverage of this build to the painting and finishing.
The third and last build sees Gary backdate the Wingnut Wings Pfalz D.IIIa kit to the earlier D.III, moving the machine guns inside the fuselage, along with sundry other modifications. The model is finished as Alois Heldmann’s aircraft.
The book also includes tutorials on rigging, and masking & painting over decals, along with our usual Appendices of aftermarket products and reference material.
And as with all our books, should any updates be required, anyone who purchased a prior version gets lifetime free access to all subsequent updated versions! All new purchasers will of course receive the updated version automatically.

This book is a must for anyone wanting to build this beautiful aircraft. Gary covers 3 builds and has great tips and techniques on how to build each stage. His knowledge of his subject is obvious and which he shares with his readers to help them get the best from these superb kits from WNW. I didn’t think he’d be able to match the book he authored on the Felixstowe, but he’s done that with ease. And one of the great benefits of a digital book is the ability to zoom in on the photos to get an even better view of the wonderful detail Gary gets in his builds. Kevin has done a great job on the layout making it easy to read and a pleasure to look at. Looking forward to Garys next publication, whenever that may be.
