Slowly heading on to the end. The tail is rigged, some wing cellule cables attached, the struts glued to the lower wing or the fuselage and the upper wing just put on to keep the geometry.

Looking very good! It's interesting to see how the sequence of our builds differ (I'm constantly trying to guess what should be done next to avoid breaking small bits, aligning everything correctly, rigging etc!) Great work, Prze!
Cheers,
Gary

I am thinking of it, too. For instance I still have not attached the aerial at the bottom, as it is easily breakable when holding the fuselage. And thanks for your kind words.

First rate job! Really inspiring to look at!
I really like the painting and was wondering what colour(s) you've used for the green, which I suppose is PC10?

Many thanks, gentlemen.
Fredrik, yes it is supposed to be PC10. I must confess that I usually take the question of this colour very lightly.  Here I have used Vallejo Air colour 71.286 IJA Verde Oliva.

And a few more steps taken. The upper wing on, centre and main wing bays rigged. The exhaust stacks in place with bracing. The gunners sting in place. The propeller, too. The kingposts glued, the glue will set quietly till tomorrow before I will tackle the last bit, i.e. the rigging of the wing cantilevers and the aileron controls. And yes, Gary, now I have finally attached the aerial to the fuselage bottom as I do not plan to turn the model upside down anymore.
 The end is not far away.

Thank you! I've come to the conclusion that what looks good is good, and I really like the look of your paintwork!/Fredrik
