No I can't but I'm watching with interest.

I have a WL12, but was once sorely tempted by a C10, which was a delight.

Tho Waterloo is designed to sound like an old Kalamazoo or similar, which I think it does, but the C10 is designed to sound like a Collings which it does.

I have a C10-35 and a WL-14 (x-braced). Both great, but the C10-35 has a somewhat richer sound, and is very loud. (The WL-14 has plenty of volume too, though.) The C10-35 definitely has a more pronounced bass than the WL-14, but still balanced. I used to have a C10 Deluxe G (German over maple, with the long scale). That one had great string separation. As I no longer have it, I can’t compare them directly, but I’m sure both my C10-35 and WL-14 are louder than my old C10.

The richness I mentioned regarding the C10-35 doesn’t sound like an OM. It’s a very “in your face” guitar. Hopefully that makes some sense.
