great work on those details, and the turtle deck mod was a vast improvement.
I can see the pictures now.  Maybe the hosting site was down for maintenance?

I am catching up Frank, having been away and therefore have just spent the last 15minutes looking at the wholly amazing extra details that you have added to the cockpit and tail. It is so sad that they will not be seen and admired by others - just another very good reason for you to build a partial strip-down model!

Thank you Ken and Stephen!
The pics are hosted by Google itself 8)

In meantime I have started to prime the fuselage and then I have to add a lot of PE details ...

Cheers,
Frank

Ahhhh, here he is.
As always, a really excellent job. The level of detail can hardly be increased. Although ? Frank sure has something in his quiver  ;)

Thank you very much for registering, because I haven't read anything from you for a very loooong time.

Cheers,

Looking all set to go Frank, I love those little pulley holders you made. Looking forward to seeing some paint on now. This is going to be a glorious Tripehound!

There is a small detail missing on the underside that you might wish to add and knowing how crazy you are, I think you will! ;)

Thanks Richie, also for the picture!
Yes I know, there is something to do, but the front will be primed black and is not detailed up to now. I found the needed PE parts on the Camel set.

Cheers,
Frank
