I appreciate the compliments, but that assembly work is not mine. Who is preparing this model is my friend Afonso Giordano, I just did the application of the fuselage decals, because he was afraid to do this job  ;D... This model have been a four hands job. ;)

Now, that is a truly interesting way to build a kit!  Beautiful work by all who had a hand in it, pun intended.

Magnificent! Please keep the updates coming. I find it interesting that "4 Hands" got involved. I just did some wood finish antennae for my Nephew's P-51 as he had reservations about replicating wood. I felt rather honored as he is a better Modeller then I and has had his Builds published on HyperScale. That being said, you did a magnificent job on your addition, the decals are most impressive. Beautiful Model even before completion!
Cheers,
Lance :)

Mr. Giordano has certainly done a wonderful job on this project. This has to be one of the most colorful schemes for a DV, and he's done it justice and more! My congratulations as well, "pretty to watch"!
