You achieved a wonderful fuselage finish in an incredible short time. You nailed the splatter effect perfectly.
I hoped for a good Halberstadt kit for a long time. I am looking forward in anticipation to start this kit like I rarely do with any kit and your build is the perfect guidance for me. Like Ryan said and I once said as well: You are setting the bar really high!
Best regards

Looks fantastic Guy, I'm currently building one of these but the late version and closed up the fuselage over the weekend and added the cowls and just as you the fit of the cowls was super tight, also spoken to somebody else and they have had the same issue so I think it's a WnW overly tight fit syndrome issue creeping in!

Very fine results! You made it look so easy. However, I am happy I have different plans for my Halberstadt with no stippling involved.  ;)

Excellent results on the spatter scheme. You are really moving along on this one

You're really getting through this build, Guy.  Nice stippling and interior work.

Regardless of the speed the quality is great, this will be a nice model.

I have never heard, that WNW also doing Weekend-Editions, as Eduard ;D

Extraordinary progress and results. You make it look easy but we know it isn't. That is some very skilled airbrushing there alone and together with everything else you are doing you are way out of my league.

Cheers

Nonsense Alistair!

Everyone’s being very kind, but I’d wait until you see the end result...  ??? I always have a few major *&@# ups.
