Coming along lovely, Alexis -

The tails booms will fit but getting the tailplane onto them is another matter ........   Recommend drilling and pinning this part prior to installing.

Regards

Well done Alexis  - I too agree that rigging the wings at this stage is a wise option!

PS: do not forget to send me the fee for using my patented jig!

Thank you so much for the continuing support guys !

Stephen , who said it is a jig  ;)

Another weekend has past following some more progress with the rigging , not quit the amount was hoping to achieve , but it was great to sit relax and enjoy . Outer bays will get finished over next weekend this will give my eyes a break ! They need it after the inner bays . So far so good , all is remaining straight so far and really starting too stiffen up as the rigging is added .

Excellent work on the rigging Alexis! All your work looks so neat and clean. The wingroot is also beautifully done!

Thanks guys for the continuing support . My bench time is limited at the moment but I do enjoy the time I get .

The outer bays are now rigged and this part is finished . Before placing the remain struts in their location These ares were per rigged . This made it easier to get in there and when the struts got added , they just clicked into place There is no play or wiggle in the structure . Made a start on the last area of the fuselage but I gave up , eyes got sore and tired .

The tail booms are next and tail plane with a start in the inner bays attachment points with turn buckles . I will per rig these before gluing in place . The attachment points are from Eduards 1/48 scale turnbuckle PE set . In the mean time , back to making wore hoops and such , there is a fair bit !

Can't spot the problem... and they seem awfully small, but think of how much life and interest they will add to your beautiful model!
