How lovely is that bonus motorised propeller?😀
Your tonal effects look fantastic too, I could go on, there's so much stunning work here. Loving it!

Andreas, as always you have done a great paint work, beautiful colors!
In my opinion the dope (in german "Spannlack") should be more glossy ("..glänzt wied' Sau.."), see for example the upper wing in this picture:

... but this is also personal style.

With the next pictures I thought, now comes a rotating rotary engine - be there, done that. But with that little electric motor you made my day! ;D How cool is that?  8)
And the battery/switch accessable via a existing maintenance lid?
You should not mount the battery fix, even if is a coin cell. I had lately some cells leaking a bad liquid into my digital measuring slide :(

A great addition, nicely done! You are always good for a surprise!

Cheers,
Frank

Indeed, a great touch with that motorised engine. And the painting looks cool, too. Yes, the red coloured Betty is one of the finest choices for the Pup.

Terri, Perry, Richie, Frank and Przemo, thank you very much!
Frank, yes, reports say the finish was glossy at the beginning but got more and more dull during flying hours.
Terri, I can remove the engine compartment. There’s just a little bit of plastic, some micro magnets and a small battrey.



Meanwhile I added the upper wing and finished rigging.



Checking the other Pup threads I realized that I forgot the decals on the struts...


Meanwhile I painted the figures that I want to add to the base.
Best regards,
Andreas

Beautiful work, love the PC12. Is that the MRP version? Figures are stunning, full of life and somehow movement too.

Really nice work, Andreas.  The prop looks very good and I like the motorization.

What a beauty! I should really get mine across the finish line.
Never mind the decals on the struts... I'm sure they were worn away on the real thing!  ::)

What a nice Pup! Thumbs Up! The figures are also a real gem done by ANDREASTM
I really like the mounting with micro magnets, very clever engineering!

The PC12 is so lovely, must do a biplane with that paint soon!

I have been cought out by the speed that you have built this Andreas! That is a truly stunning build and the figures are something else again. The engine spinning is also novel but very good too and like Frank I really admire the micro-engineering that you have used to install the motor. Another winnr is about to take off from your bench!

Great work on your model, Andreas - and the spinning prop with the figure holding on to his hat will look very appropriate. Your figures, by the way, look excellent.

The spinning motor is ultra cool Andreas.
