Thank you guys for the lovely comments , means a lot to me

Frank , it is nice to add this one to the collection . I'm working on adding different types and right now I have a thing for two seaters . After the FF33 and S.M build it will either be an Albatros C.III or a Bristol Fighter or some totally different

After seeing this post Alexis I had to go back and review your build in the Construction threads. I don't visit "Resin builds" often enough and was not aware of your efforts to progress this little project. I'm pleased to see you stuck with it. Your model looks great, even if you're not entirely happy yourself with the finished result. What impresses me is that you stuck with it and produced a lovely little replica that you can sit with a coffee and admire. The rigging alone is amazing. And the damaged markings could be attributed to wear and tear. But the overall model is a very attractive accomplishment.
Cheers,
Gary

Thanks for dropping by and checking out the build Gary . Maybe in the distance future I will touch up the personal markings or just add more oil staining .
Again thanks for the kind comments

I have heard that resin kits can be tricky so you have to be happy you managed to get this done, the end result is not bad at all

Thanks Matti ,

Yes , some resin kit's can be tricky but no different then a plastic kit really .

Thanks Manni ,

It was harder overcoming the frustration within , that was the real challenge

Like Manni said, overcoming the difficulties should add to your enjoyment of the build, the results you achieved are wonderful. We are always our own worst critic and tend to give too much thought to the things that we had trouble with during construction, sit back and enjoy!

I've missed commenting on this until now. It may have put up a fight, but you've finished it in grand style. Looks great.

Nice result from a difficult kit. I remember the fight it put up for me 25 years ago - goodness knows how much worse the resin bits are by now. Very attractive swan from a sadly ugly duckling!

A really great result, Alexis! I know you battled, but you tamed it and made it look just beautiful! Well done! Marc
