Many thanks one and all.

This one languished on the started, but not assembled pile for a long time after an unsuccessful couple of attempts at producing some wire wheels from those etched brass pieces. I'd even contemplated converting it to the triplane version because that had covers on the wheels (Sadly it also had more struts)

ps - Yep Nigel I'll bring it along to Bovington  ;)

Thank you both  ;D

On the next one I'll paint the 'transparent' underside markings which I think will give better control over how they appear and won't leave that annoying edge which you get around a decal

Great little model! The transparent look is very convincing.

Thanks Joachim.
Yep definitely a fan of metal struts which make the whole job of rigging much more enjoyable  :)

I like the boxy look of this aircraft. A very skillfully made, beautiful model.
