Thank you all for the kind words.  I really appreciate it.

After about 5 hours of tedium this morning, the top wing and landing gear are on and pointing in the right direction.  I think it's all downhill now.

This one is looking absolutely beautiful Stuart. Terrific job on mounting the upper wing.

You're a patient, dedicated modeler Stuart.  (Thanks for clearing up the VMC business for me.)

Continue to march troop!

Here's exactly how I did it.

Hi Stuart,

Many thanks for going through your technique, that's absolutely brilliant, thank you! I prefer acrylics these days and I'm a fan of the Vallejo ranges even though their colour names can be a bit misleading The effects you've achieved are excellent and I'll be giving them a go in the near future, I hope, as I've got some wood grain and mottling on planned projects.

Looking forward to seeing your next instalment.

Cheers,
Mark

Though Italian WWI types are a major blindspot of my knowledge I'm keenly following along. Great to see the top wing on!

Looks great, Stuart! Like you, I have a number of SoS entries to work on but only one I want to start for Omaha next year, the AZ Breguet 14.

Thanks Matt.  I have the AZ Breguet 14 too and it looks like a beauty of a kit.  You will do a stunning job on it.
