Your painting is excellent as are the Belgian markings. This one is really turning out top notch!

My dear friends I'm back.  ;D
I spent a lot of time trying to do my comet and I gave up.  :-[ and I was looking for someone who can do it for me.
In the meantime, I decided to finish the model of the CH-37 Mojave 1:72 helicopter, from the Vietnam War.
I began it in December 2009. It need a lot of scratch building. I made interior of  the cargo cabin , one of my colleagues made for me PE covers for engines. I spent a lot of time completing this model.
I can boast about some photos from the construction of this helicopter.

Cargo cabin.









Engine covers.





Finished model











On modeling competition in LASK this model, he took second place. 8)



I think my absence here is a bit justified.  ;)

At that time I was looking for someone who would make me comet masks, I finally found who made those masks for me.
I painted it white and here there was a catastrophe. At the time of applying the second part of the mask, everything twisted, the mask was long and thin.  >:(



It was necessary to make decals.
After finishing the comet I painted the crossbars.





Now it's time to make interplane struts.



Rigging has caused me a lot of trouble, for me it is the most difficult.







Finally, the model is made.  8)

















The model is very difficult to make. It requires a lot of your own work.
I am so proud of myself that I managed to finish this model.
A second grandson was born to me in Belgium recently, and it is a good opportunity to make another model of the Belgian Air Force. It will be Sopwith Camel, I have already started the model and will show it in a separate thread.

Adam.

Adam, this is a very beautiful kit of a very beautiful bird in a very rare and beautiful livery! Thank you for sharing your model here! What a pity that there are no better kits of the SPAD VII and XIII around...

Thank you my friends.
This kit is very difficult it needs a lot of forbearance and patience, I was very close to throw it through the window, but I was very desperate to finish it.
