I hope you don't think I'm definitely crazy now!

Sorry Frank. You can’t have everything…

Yes, peak is the right expression! I do not know, if I can do this again, so if I'm doing the second kit of this box I have to repeat this sh...! I hope that at least the Comic Camel, which I want to buy later this year, do not have it

Cheers,
Frank

I'm just shaking my head in admiration, each part is a stunning piece of work. The cabanes and interplane struts are beautiful and the linen...wow, the linen!!
Zac, I hope you won't get a headache! The linen is one of those lovely linen colors made by MR-Paint (https://mrpaint.sk/). I really like them, but they are airbrush paints.

I always have pain medication in reach while browsing this forum, lest I strain my neck or jaw muscles in amazement!

Thank you for the paint recommendation. Other modellers have been pushing for me to get an airbrush setup since 2007. It's definitely on my list!

Hello Frank.
That is the most detailed rigging I have ever seen. I do not know the name of the thing infront of the cockpit that has four wires running thru it but when I made an Eduard Camel I thought at the time I was being clever using a blob of thick super glue and a couple more blobs of thick paint to replicate that incredibally intricate thing you did.

Frank, should you ever quit model building, sure you have a golden future in fine clockmaking. Hats off.
Ciao

Congratulations on a job well done! It is really fun to look at your progress and to see all of these fantastic additions. Some of which I intend to try and copy. Some of which are so far out of my league, that I only smile when I see them and think 'That is so typically Frank's work!'.

Great result on the rigging. It looks like the best rendition of British flat wires I have ever seen on any model.

Got to agree with the others Frank - lost for words to describe what you have done....

Ang BTW - yes I do think that you have completely lost it now!

Thank you very much Zac, Alan, Giuseppe, Fredrik, Prze and Stephen for taking your time to leave a comment!
At the moment I'm working on the tail, which needs also a lot of work.

Cheers,
Frank
