Looking lovely. I like the subtle shading on the undersides. It's very easy to overdo that technique..

That's a lot of masking! You ought to get an apprentice to that kinda stuff.

Nice job on the PC10 and the clear doped linen PrezmoL,

I will be interested to see how the top surfaces look as I am about to do the same with my WNW Snipe.

Here are my lower Snipe wings with castor oil stains:



All looking up to your usual exceptional standard.

The interior of your Triplane is very well done, I am following your build with great interest.

Best wishes,

Dave

Thank you everybody! (Nice Snipe wing, Dave!)
Now you may assess if all that masking was worth a penny - the Tripe reached the stage of a monoplane, the rigging and all the control lines at the tailplane and fin is completed, the majority of the dirt is on, too (I will only add some more on the wheels, which are still immaculately clean).









The mid and upper wing are also ready for the assembly

I have not seen this before - not looking in the right place! Only one comment. Absolutely stunning.

Well done Przemol.

First class paint job there, all that masking sure payed up and the "caster oil" looks quite on the spot.

Cheers

Gorgeous, Prez!  Your preshading has produced spectacular results.  This is my favorite Tripe scheme, too.  Beautifully rigged tail.
Cheers

PrezmoL,

This is looking fantastic, cannot wait to see the finished model!

PS, thanks for the comment on the Snipe wing....all I used was AK Fuel Stains, straight out of the bottle and painted on by brush.

Best wishes from the desert!
