Some post shading on the fuselage sides will add some depth. I will probably use a very thin khaki for the job.
Engine complete barring ignition leads. Still debating if I should bother TBH.
Seat cushion needs a glaze to finish.

Cabane struts and framing will receive a Tamiya clear yellow. Bit and bobs to be added and picked out accordingly.

I'm enjoying this build immensely. I've allowed myself to make mistakes without beating my head against the bench, learn from those mistakes and move on. Life is far to short to stress.  ;)

I'm sorry I haven't had time to chime in on all the other builds. I'm way to busy twisting wire at the moment, but know that I'm keeping an eye on your progress.  :o

Cheers!

Micro update!

Fuel gauge attached to the starboard cabane has been removed and replaced with stretched clear sprue.

Over!

We are going to have some new categories here. You alone for extreme improvements! Brilliant. Who would have thought of that?  :o

Bob, what colors did you use for the leather effect on the seat?

Ryan

Hi Ryan,
 The seat cushion was painted 'leather warm shadow' from Lifecolor. When dry I buffed with a q-tip. Then dry brushed with Citadel 'Cadian Fleshtone' to finish. I will probably apply a thin coat of the lifecolor to help tone it down.

Thanks for all the nice comments  ;)
Currently working on the woody bits in the cockpit  :o

Cheers,
Von B

Love the fuel fuage Bob. Something I intend to do on my Nieuport build for the GB.

Keep on keeping on.
Slow, but useful progress. Which for me is a revelation!

Engine wired for sound.
Cockpit floor before furniture added.

Carry on...
