Beautiful and inspiring work Prze!  It's so great to see you back in 1/72nd scale again.

Are you SURE this is 1/72....? Because it doesn't look like it to me! ;D

Simply stunning work in this small scale. A joy to see this progress.

Gorgeous work Prze. I’m particularly impressed with your Spandau guns.

Thank you.

Here is more. The cockpit assembly proceeding







And the seat with the belts are still to be attached, here together with the scratch built oil tank.

Looking great, as your work always does!

Are you able to position the cockpit /  interior far enough back so that it properly lines up with the nose panels?

Cheers!

I think I am able to move it back as it should be :)

Thanks for your kind words!

Closer and closer... The seat and the fuel tank attached.




And the test fitting... looks promising - the front spar is just aligned with the wood panels edges. The front bottom seam will need some pressing together to clear the gap.

I’m amazed how sharp and clean it all looks. Not a speck of dust. The instruments looks neater than what I thought could be made in this scale.
