Hi Mark,
 Lovely looking DXII you got there 

The white EZ line... did you tone the colour down or did you go with the natural colour?
Cheers,

She's absolutely gorgeous, Mark.  I love the scheme and you did an outstanding job on the feathered demarcations, nice and smooth and even.  The rigging looks fantastic as does the prop.  Brilliant job all around, buddy.
Cheers,
Bud

Hi Bob:

Thanks for the compliments, I did not tone down the white at all.  Just right off the reel.  Now, I did put a drop of sand in the dullcote and maybe that toned it down a bit.

Thanks guys for the kind words.  I really like the look of this model.  The Pheon sheet offers so many schemes.  I just may have to do another one.  Maybe the Belgian scheme.

Hello Dirk:

Thanks for the kind words.  I was able to finish it in less than a month due to a couple of reasons, the interior didn't require a lot of work.  No wood grain to wait to dry, no internal rigging save for the rudder and stick controls.   I didn't spend a lot of time on the engine, just some plugs and wires.  Once the exhaust and the gun troughs are on the model you can't see into the engine bay.  A straightforward paint scheme.  Easy rigging and that was about it.  Now a person with AMS could spend a lot of time on it.  I am a basic OOB builder, and that is about it.  I do spend time on the engine on what is visible and focus on the visible.  It is a good kit, goes together well, has a good flow to it and a neat looking model to boot.  Oh, one more thing, I have no other life right now during the winter months in the great upper midwest of the USA and can devote most of my non working waking moments to modeling.

Thanks for stopping by

Congratulations Mark on a splendid build, the colour scheme is stunning and very well applied. The overall finish of this model is superb and very eyecatching, a real 'stand out in the crowd' model. Well done.

Des.

Hello Des:

Thanks for the kind compliments, much appreciated.  You can move this build over to the finished side of the house.  I will probably be entering another two seater for the two seater build.  Stand by for more modeling mayhem.

Thanks again

Very nicely done Mark. She's definitely a very colourful old girl. I wish I could say it was mine!

I will probably be entering another two seater for the two seater build.

Yer killin' me here buddy!

Hi Chris:

Thanks for stopping by and your compliments.  This is a great kit and highly recommend it.  You too can have one in your collection and then we could enter them in a "Pose Down".
I am on a stash reduction mission this winter.  Build Build Build.
