The seat, Lewis gun, and gear look terrific.

Beautiful work, Alexis! I'm enjoying every update.

I have the OLD Smer kit in My closet Alexis...if you really want a challenge  ;D
Rick, that falls into the category of assault and bullying!
I for one like to spin the Merit/Smer kits around into seeing what one can do with one's skillset and aftermarket. I have their Avro 504k waiting for just an opportunity, and a year or three back built their (suprisingly nice) Tiger Moth...although I'm desperately keen to get my hands on the Airfix one!

Very fine results, both on large surfaces and on smaller bits.

Very nice paint job! The effort with the shading pays back.
Looks like you can start rigging soon :D

Cheers,
Frank

Hey , thanks a lot guys for the positive feed back  :)

Having tonight off I fig it would be a good day getting some more airbrushing in on the main colours . For the grey I used Tamyia Neutral grey . For the booms the paint was thinned more then I normally do and was applied in layers . I used Tamiya Lac thinner in the yellow cap , it looks airbrushed ! .

for the rudder Tamiya's lacquer line of paint was used They thin better then acrylic meaning thinner coats . The back end of the fuselage the wooden frames need touch up . This was hard to mask , but this will be easy by hand .

Still a fair bit to go before the rigging the starts . Detail painting and decals need to be done , then weathering , clear coat , more weathering . With still having to make the rigging attachment points .

Me too, your DH.2's coming along beautifully! And good tip on the Tamiya colour for the grey, I have that colour so I'll make a note for my stashed DH.2.

Catching up Alexis: the painting looks super - and I see that you are  suing a Barracuda saet - they really are very good indeed.

I do like your idea of building one of these with the interior visible - am looking forward to when you attempt it.
