Thanks Steve! I didn't get quite as much done as hoped while I was on vacation last week. But now after working 4 days I am on Vacation again for 10 days  ;D I hope to at least get the DV done and perhaps have the Snipe close … We shall see.

Sorry Rick but I am catching up again - life keeps getting in the way at the moment!

Super updates - a wonderful pair of Albatri in the making here. The wood finish on the fuselage is just stunning....

Oh how nice, the red Albatros is on its wheel. And it looks as wonderful as expected. Very nice, Rick, as always!

Rick, this is a beautiful pair. The two of them have so much color, and so well executed.

Thanks Ian. I am very close to being able to mount the upper wing on the DV.

I have progressed on the DV although it will take a sharp eye to notice  ::) I have sprayed the red and yellow areas and the wings with Tamiya flat. I have also done some weathering with oils on the fuselage and an oil dot technique on the wings.

Next up is mounting the cabane struts, then attaching the upper wing.

RAG III,
I'm "chomping at the bit" to get back to work on something. Seeing the great work you've done is making it worse.
Perhaps in a couple of months after my move. In the meantime I'll enjoy watching your great builds.

Thanks Kevin your comment is appreciated! I am glad you are finding inspiration looking at my build and others here on the Forum. That is what it is all about!
