Just a small progress today, the u/c struts, horizontal stabilizer and control horns for tail feathers. Wheels are only dryfit for a better view  ;)

Gorgeous. It will be spectacular once totally rigged and everything is permanently attached!

Nice.
Not criticism by any means, but one set of wheels were covered and the other not?  Or is this your artistic license?
Interesting to see both sets of wheels on one plane.

Following with continued interest.  :)

Thank you very much.

Nice.

This is indeed one of the reasons, I chose this example. If you look at the photo I posted in the beginning of this thread, you will notice, between the legs of the pilots standing at this a/c that it indeed had coverless wheels on the left side.  ;)

Terrific modelling skills as always Prz.
I have this one in the stash but the rigging terrifies me! I'll follow your progress as if watching a mountain-guide in the Alps!
Love the blue steel against the linen fabric.

Elevator attached and connected, trusses rigged in vertical fields.

Amazing work (as always) on this project, Prze. The rigging looks very daunting. I love the shadowing (highlighting?) of the framework in your paint and marking scheme.
Cheers,
Gary

I'm in total agreement with Gary. The flying surfaces are beautifully done and rigging is so impressive too. 👏

Thanks, Gary and Richie.

A few more bits mounted and a couple of lines connected.

Magic work. One of these days I'll have the bravery to tackle one of these for my friend but I'm still extremely hesitant - it doesn't help that he keeps finding differences between the kit and his chosen subject!

I keep looking at this thread and muttering "Wow..." and shaking my head. Absolutely beautiful.
