As I wrote in an earlier comment this is a really good piece of modelling. I especially like your jigs under the wings - clearly a man after my own heart when it comes to that sort of thing - simplicity is best and usually very effective. I think that the lozenge finish is very good and I especially like the cockpit detail. Keep posting so we can see the finished model in due course.

Thank you for your comment LM.
The lozenge to set on the wings is very difficult and so it goes very slowly on.

After some Trouble, I glue again the left wing to the fuselage.
The rudder levers are glue to it.
Some more Lozenge are one the top wing.

She's coming together beautifully, Martin.  Yes, lozenge is time consuming, but you you're doing an excellent job with it.
Cheers,
Bud

Martin, you are making a wonderful job of this model. Lozenge camouflage is slow however it is done and it is easy to get wrong. It is much more difficult to get right - many congratulations on having done so, and having done it so well.

Now is the Lozenge ready.  :o
Also all Balkenkreuze on the model and the white stripe paint on the top wing.
The engine is in the model.
The next will be to correct the struts for the top wing.
