Thank you all so much!  I really appreciate the encouragement!
She's finally a biplane.




Now, on to the wee bit of rigging that there is and the floats.
Cheers,
Bud

As usual Bud you have produced a really first class model - when it is completed it will repay some very close study. Excellent model.

Thank you, guys!  I'm not used to working with anything so large, heavy and cumbersome.  Takes some getting used to and this is smallish compared to other WNW kits in my stash.  Working on the float assembly now and hope to have her finished by Monday. 
Cheers,
Bud

Well, she's finally done!  My second WNW model is now in the cabinet.  More photos in the completed models section.



Thanks for hanging in there with me, my friends!
