Thanks everyone for the comments on the engine - and now I have something to put it into. I got the wood grain painting on the fuselage done, one panel at a time. Then painted some details. Next will be decals & the nail heads.
Cheers,
Gary

Beautiful woodgrain, Gary. That's going to be one impressive build.

The different grain on each panel looks great Gary, just as I'd expect on the real deal. Well done!

Stunning, Gary -

Such realistic wood grain and tones on your fuselage

One of the disadvantages of the WnW kit-supplied decals for the wood grain on the fuselage is that they cover up the minute depressions molded into the plastic representing nail marks. Since I painted on my woodgrain, I was able to enhance this detail with a tiny bit of diluted dark oil paint.
Cheers,
Gary

That is awesome! I didn't realize WNW had done the Nail Pattern on this one!
