Some really good progress, Toby! I also replaced those lifting handles, come to think of it... But a lovely looking model! Marc

Outstanding work all 'round, Toby!  I have this one in my stash and now you've got me giving it more serious consideration.
Cheers,
Bud

You are building a lovely model of this unlike-WW1 aircraft, Toby. Fine paint work and decaling!

Nice work! In spite of the troubles with the decals, you seem to have gotten them to behave well enough to settle in the corrugations :)

Almost finished. I used EZ line for the rigging on the U/C. Just need to fit prop and tail and will give another light coat of gloss varnish.
Undecided about weathering atm. I do like to make my kits look used so probably will add some .

Basically all done. Just need to do some tidying up and then I'll post more pictures of it in the completed section.

Very, very nice, Toby! A beautiful model with a colourful scheme! Also the way you have coped with the corrugations is just superb! Well done and a real fun build to follow... Regards, Marc
