Fantastic as usual me old buddy. I started mine (early) this weekend. I see you as Des didnt have to notch the frame door the trim wheel wires. I made mine uneccessary complicated as per usual. Keep up the great work

What the others have written - that looks superb and the colours spot on.

Thank you, guys! This really is a joy to build.
Just finished adding all of the wing rigging anchor points. I had painted them on the fret, but all the cutting and bending caused most of the paint to chip off, so I had to repaint them in situ and reopen some of the holes. Initially, I had considered not using them and just rigging using my usual technique, but I'm glad I changed my mind. I like the way they look.
Just getting started:

Finished:

Now, the top wing and rigging! Yay!
Cheers,
Bud

Great nice details and paintjob inside the fuselage and a clean and perfect built.
I`m jealous, I want to have this kit on my workbench. The photoetched parts of the rigging anchors are unbelieveable fine.
Wow.

The patience that you must have to manipulate those pieces into shape is something that I envy. They have really added something very different to the model - a real enhancement. This is turning into a very interesting build indeed.

Great update Bud! Glad that you decided to use the anchor points - they really make your life easier. I thanked Edgar for them, all the time when I was rigging the Caudron

Thank you for your kind comments, guys! She's now a biplane!

Rigging begins tomorrow.
Cheers,
Bud

Very nice! Will keep my fingers crossed for successful rigging.

Btw. Mc Leod - is that the pilot who landed his burning aircraft while standing on the wing?

Cheers

Beautiful job Bud! She`s quite big isn`t she?

Terrific progress Amigo! One thing I like about your PC 10. In one photo it looks greenish but given different lighting it is Chocolate! Perfect PC 10
