Truly brilliant, Pete.  A marvelous bit of modeling all around.  Everything from the wood grain to the chipped cowling to the engine is superb.  Can't wait to see what you do with the Fee.
Cheers,
Bud

Lovely work Pete - she looks suitably weary!!
Love the work you did on the cowling.
Here's looking to the Fee.

You can join the unofficial Fee GB thats going on. I am tempted a la The Red Baron and get a debt that certain countries in the Eurozone would baulk at and hoard a few WNW kits with the early Fee being high up on the list to start next after my GB entry is completed.

Really, really well done Pete! Your woodwork is superb and the touch of weathering is absolutely perfect. It looks exactly how I wish mine could look. Top drawer all around.

Cheers,

Chris

Thanks for the comments guys.

Gary, I'm looking forward to the Fee, I must admit I've been toying with the idea of building one for some time now.

Cheers

Pete.

That beautiful fuselage work draws one in quickly to inspect the rest of your grand work Pete. A jewel if there ever was one. Many “Thumbs Up”!

Paddy

P.S. One question. Are the seat belts from the WnW PE sprue?

Superb job Pete! Congratulations!

Many thanks for the comments once again guys.

Paddy, the seat belts are a mix of HGW photo-etch parts and Tamiya tape for the belts themselves.

Cheers

Pete.

Pete,

Sorry - only just picked up on this (been away for a few days this weekend) one -

This is, without doubt, your best work so far - I think the weathering all over is 'just right' and really looks the part.

Good luck with your FE2 build!

Best regards

Dave

Pete,
  I missed this earlier, away for the weekend. My compliments on a beautiful finish; the wood work is top notch and the wear/chipping very well done. I like this old horse very much!
Cheers,
Lance
