If your ould like to see the first part of this build, please be so kind to check out my FB page...
Time for a little update. I weathered the fuselage and wings, and differentiated with gloss, semi gloss an matt varnishes to get some variety in the color depth and feel for the different materials. Now it's time to rig that tail, add scopes, mg's, engine and the radiator. Then slowly but surely things will go to the upper wing and rigging. Finally, finally it seems this is going somewhere…. hope you enjoy the pics, all comments welcome as usual! Cheers, Jeroen

Just saw this on FB!

Nice weathering effect! I'm looking forward to seeing this when it's done.
Cheers,

Brilliant weathering, Jeroen. The overall effect is very pleasing and believable.
Cheers,

Thanks for all the kind words guys. In the mean time I managed to do some more. The tail section and the upper deck are done. Next is the engine, exhausts, radiator and inner struts. I have painted most of these items, but still need to do some weathering. Since I intend to close the nose panels and not much will be visible I will only do minimal work on the engine. This has taken long enough ;-)! All comments welcome as usual, happy modeling, Jeroen

Beautiful work and exceptional weathering Jeroen! Looks real. Very well done!
Regards,
Bob
-
Fabtabulous!

Jeroen,
Wonderful colour work, you've really captured the tonal variety thing well on the various components and panels. I too like a weathered appearance, yours is exceptionally well done. I like this Build a lot!
Cheers,
Lance

I managed to get quite some work done today. The engine, upper deck, inner wingstruts, radiator and exhausts have all been done. I'm still working on the prop and the outer struts, which will be in a black white striped pattern. The topwing is almost done as well so it won't be long before that is mounted and the rigging begins...

Fabulous!! Each type of material has its own texture and tones. Love it!!!
Steve
-
Love it!
-
Yep, love the tonal variations - very good
-
Thanks gents! Glad you like the tonal variation. This is something I have been experimenting with for a while and I feel I'm getting it under control. Most variation is created just by using different varnishes for the finish - gloss, semi gloss, matt, and some variations in brands because they all have their own character. Thanks agin for the kind words! Cheers, Jeroen
-
Top drawer! I wish my paint jobs all looked like this.
Cheers,
Chris
-
The model is really looking good Jeroen. Great idea using the
different varnishes here and there. Very convincing.
Cheers,
Ernie

Today I installed the upper wing. All rigging points have been prepared so I'm going to add wire over the coming days. After that I need to install the flaps and top machinegun. Then some minor adjustments.... and she's done. A week, a week and a half, and she should be finished!

You're attention to details and skill to get it done are trully amazing.

Thank you guys, that is very humbling. Your words are encouraging to get me through the last laps. Highly appreciated, and very stimulating. Thanks again!

I'm on the home stretch….. only flaps and top MG… and then she's done. Finally!
