Assembled the figure and started painting the first layers of flesh. A long way to go for sure.

The figure will be a nice complement to the plane. The rivet counter in me went back to see if you had left the cushion off the seat.........which you had Nice planning ahead.

Thanks Nigel, I hope you are correct in that the figure will complement the build. The first time I am working on a figure this large with Acrylics! Yes, I do all of My Triplanes from JG1 that are in the appropriate time frame for parachutes minus the cushion

Todays progress on the figure and Triplane. I have done oil weathering on the aircraft and painted the Face and Helmet with oils on the figure. I have also painted the base coat on the figures uniform.

That pose looks great next to the aircraft. Excellent idea to add the figure.

Thank You! I have added control wires to the aircraft and done the next to last painting on the figure. Just the 4 bracing wires for cabanes and gear legs left to rig. After that final touch up and clear finish.
