Thanks, your comments are very much welcome.

And the good news of today.
1. The lightning quick emergency service from Eduard complete. The missing triple cabane struts have just arrived safely - two weeks after sending the query - thank you Eduard!




2. I am almost there with the rib tapes, now only the leading and trailing edges are missing.

Bravo Roden* Eduard, and excellent work Prze! I'm eager to see your next update.

With all due respect to you and to Roden, our Ukrainian friends have nothing to do with THIS build  ;) Here, in the customer service aspect all the glory goes to Eduard.  :D

Hereby I declare the application of the losenge and the tapes completed. In a summary, I can only praise these decals. It was a rare pleasure to work with them. Even conforming them to the thin trailing edges was a breeze.
And I have also finished colouring the fuselage. Now it will be time for markings decals, custom designed and printed by my reliable and invaluable friend Mr.Decal.

Really good-looking work on all of those rib tapes.  I have several projects stuck waiting for the next 25% of the rib tapes to be added. 

This week i went to the Boeing Museum of Flight and looked at the WWI display of replicas.  The Pfalz D.XII had rib takes of the lozenge material and I nearly got dizzy trying to track what was where.  I hope to use that style on a future project, which will probably drive me further batty.

How I made that error I have no idea, corrected!

Beautiful work Prze! The close-up photos appear to show a very wide weave on the lozenge.

You're among friends Rick, that sort of thing is totally normal around here!

Beautiful work as always, the rib tapes look amazing.

Rib tapes on the tailplane?  I don't remember seeing that before Prze, very interesting!

I was thinking about it and finally decided to follow what Aviattic has in the offer for D.VIIs
