Hannover CL.IIIa

Kit: Eduard (1:48)

Here are some pix of a 1/48 Eduard Hannover CL.IIIa I recently completed. Nice kit, but you can tell it is not up to their current standards as it was one of their early efforts. The lozenge decals are current Eduard decals, not kit, and the stripes are by Techmod. Fuselage hand painted....I enlarged the kit color pattern, overlaid that over Tamiya tape, cut each shape and transferred those to the model, then exposed the shapes individually to shoot that specific color, touched up afterwards, and finally oversprayed the large lozenge with a wash of German Black Green to darken.....phew! Hope you like the results, it was a pain to do all that.
