I've been procrastinating with finishing this one.
Needs wheels and some more rigging.

Very, very nice -

The wood painting and wing shading look excellent - let's see her fully completed, mate!

Got to say it - That is one of the best D.VI's I've seen to date.
Looking forward to seeing her complete.

Thank you all very much for your kind words about my Roland.

I truly value your encouragement and find a great sense of camaraderie in our shared passion for WW1.
My current approach is to enjoy my models and their making like a bottle of fine Australia wine, that is to say, don’t rush them.
When finished, the Roland will be photographed by a pro and shared with you all on the forum.

Kind Regards
Steven
