Stunning work Fredrik! I love that brass tank. The rigging looks terrific, I would have tripped over all of that pre-installed wire  ::)

Thanks Rick! I'm sure you would have managed quite well, but it's good to have you back here... I can't really imagine what it was/is like to have a hurricane pass over you.

Finished... I think... just a few quick pictures before bed.

A few last turnbuckles to be added to the rudder and elevator control horns... I used my, by now, usual method of melting a strand of sprue or fishing line to create a rivet of sorts.




A few, not too good pictures of the completed model.




Take care!
/Fredrik

   Your usual spectacular work Fredrik, and such a pleasure to see it all come together. The intricacy and sharp quality of the detail you achieve are remarkable!
Cheers,

Superb detail work - and terrific overall finish too.
This really has the look and sit of a Harry Tate.
Magnificent.

Love your Harry Tate- the details are excellent as is the colour variation on the wings? and of course the prop!

Cheers

You've delivered a truly impressive model with this project, FAf. The paintwork and detailing are off the charts! Well done, indeed.
