Hi all,
Using 'Flory' fine clay wash for weathering.
Just like the 'Karate Kid' - wash ON ----------

Hi all,
The twin aileron control cables (with turnbuckles) that are routed from the cockpit and fuselage to the underside of the upper wing (both sides) are done.
Also the engine exhaust and propeller are now fitted,

Brilliant! The underlying work is immaculate but your adds - washes, weathering, figures and accessories promise a real winner.

Cheers

Excellent! I like how you have given an indication of the pin stripes without them overwhelming the figure.

Hang on a minute mate. With one in his arm, that is not two but three Fokkers that I count you making. :o ;D
