Great paintjob! The shading brings so much depth in this kit. Great.

Looking really great, Filip. And I see you chose my favourite G.IV scheme with red-white engine cowlings. Enjoy the rigging! ;)

I`ve managed to paint, put the decals on (they work like a charm - Cartograf - and everything is clear ;) ). I`ve also fixed the fittings and made the stitching. I was trying to figure out how to do it painlessly and reached the same conclussion as Jorgo that the best way is to drill holes and thread the fishing line through.
Now I need to fix the upper wing, no worries though since everything fits well.





Best regards
Filip

Superb attention to detail Filip.

Your rendition of framework showing through the fabric is exceptional.

Very talented modelling!

I do not know about you guys,
but for me it`s clear that it was not possible to make a realistic PE for such a stitching for both side

Awesome progress ! It really looks striking! I join in, I had no idea how to reproduce the stitching in PE. I think your an Jörg's way is the best to do that.
