It's been a while since I commented, but this is looking really good.  The weathering gives a very realistic look.

Thank you.  It’s a difficult task to add weathering but not overdoing it. I still have a lot to learn!

I have been awol a great deal recently Tim and therefore have had to catch up with this thread. It is great to see a real aeroplane being built and the finish that you have achieved on the DH 2 is superb in every way. The rigging looks just fine to me - I too cannot seem to get double wires to work in this scale but I have never had complaints so just keep going!

Two super models here.
