Thank you
A small step, perhaps, but done with your usual sense of fine craftsmanship.
I was friends with the late Leo Opdycke from WWI Aero magazine, who built a 1:1 Bristol Scout in his basement over a period of about ten years. I asked him how he managed to do it once and he said “I made sure I did something on it every day. Sometimes it was just cutting out a rib or drilling a hole in a fitting, but I always managed to do something.”
And just think, the best part is that you won’t have to knock a hole in your basement wall in order to get the D.H. out like he did with his plane!

Good points, David.
I indeed tend to do at least a small bit every day. It is also because of my addiction. If I do not spend some time a day at my bench I become anxious...
So here are some recent steps. The colouring has started at the undersides. Self made masks are at work. There will be some small retouches required around the rib tapes, but it works fine overall.
And here are the decals which arrived exactly today from LMDecals to replace the apparently wrong-coloured and some wrong-shaped kit decals.
