...  I’ll try one of the other options and repost the pics.
That would be great, Matt. Thanks.

Hi all - sorting out images and now on imgur although still trying to work out how to post as pics rather than links. Anyhow work is progressing although slowly and the deadline is looming!
Cheers Matt

As others have said, you're doing a great job on this.

Hi - a quick question : I’m looking for options to do RAF flying wire.  Based on the instructions for the WNW camel, i.e doubling it for 1/1 6, it should be about 0.6mm width. I can find some elastic thread on eBay that seems ok but without seeing it hard to know . Any ideas? Ps no need for structural rigging on this - it’s a pretty robust bird. Cheers Matt
Ps I re-did the cushion, scratched the seat belts as none come with the kit and getting ready to give her some teeth ( thanks to Gaspatch).

Totally agree with Rick - this is a superb piece of modelling. The seat really looks the part.

Hi - I am busy working on this and will try and post some pics later. The damage from falling from 2 meters off a shelf (thank-you feline companions) is fixed and progress is being made.
However, a question: does anyone know a good place to source custom made decals? I’m looking for the company logo for the tail, a few ‘lift here’ and a couple of other generic markings? I’ve tried ‘Arctic decals’ and while possible he is busy to December at least....if there are any suggestions would love to hear. Cheers Matt
