By coincidence I was looking at the propeller for an R.E.8 at the weekend

Spectacular work, as always, Przemo!  I love the subtle shading and the colors you're chosen.  Coincidentally, I'm working on the Aeroclub 1/48 RE8.  Mine is a dog, by comparison.
Cheers,
Bud

Thank you all.

Janh, I struggle with fittings on the struts, too. One of most unpleasant parts in modelling. My method is the thin brush 00 and lots of patience.

Filip, it is indeed my plan to take this model to Bytom and possibly some other contests next year.

Shading, wash, varnish complete. The assembly has begun with the undercarriage and stabilisers.
