This one really looks awesome. The markings look great as do the subtle nail heads.

Thanks Rick!

Here is a detail of the plywood work. Maybe it has gotten a little too 'rough' but I wanted to avoid it getting too uniform.
And you have to start somewhere, right?

Looks great to Me. The Voss DIII is a bird I will surely have to do someday! Thanks for the continued inspiration.

I really like the up close shot . Shows off that beautiful grain even better . Like Rick said , nothing wrong with that at all .

Beautiful indeed Kent, I like the way you made the inkjet decal sheet and you placed those decals in a really perfect way...

I have this plane in my to do list but in 48th.

excellent effect for the plywood and for the nails

That turned out lookin mighty fine.  To me, the grain is a little too much, but like you say, you gotta start somewhere and it's the look you wanted.  I like it especially with Voss's markings on it.  Very nicely done.  Now, if only I had an inkjet printer.

I missed this!! You made a challenging model into a beauty bird!! Way braver than me nailing AFTER decaling!!

I always enjoy your builds, there’s always a wealth of tips to pick up.

The modelling is top notch too

The nail heads look great, Kent.  I'll have to try it on a build.

You are definitely a renaissance man when it comes to model building. I missed the start of this and it looks amazing!!!
