I'm calling this one done :D

Later today I will do a full 360 photo shoot like I did with the Eindecker but here is a little something to wet your appetite.

A very stunning looking DH.2 James, the overall finish on this model is superb and the rigging has been executed perfectly. The inclusion of the figure is great and the base you have used looks very realistic.

Hey Guys, thank you for the kind words.

The base is actually one of my originals that I made on Wednesday as the schools were shut due to the Typhoon we recently had here in Japan.

Hello James!!!

It won't hurt if I say it once again - DH.2, its presentation with pilot and grass plus pictures is like luxurious dinner menu - served all in one dish  :) Splendid!!!

Cheers

Wonderful job.  I love the weathering and finish.

Could you give a little more detail on how you made the base.

    Beautifully done James, and the base is outstanding. Looking forward to your tutorial, it's a part of the Build that I need to get better at, and I really am impressed by what you've done here.
   Great work!

That si a superb model in every way. Pushers are not the nightmare to rig as some think, but you have done a truly excellent job. The finish is something I could die for and the base is something that I will follow carefully as I too have problems with them.
