Another day, another bit of progress. Actually mes amis, it is a fair bit of
progress this time. I have installed the upper wing, which wasn't much trouble
at all, and most of the rigging. I still have a few wires to install when the
undercarriage is complete, and some of the turnbuckles need a little fine tuning
,
but it's coming along quite well, all things considered.
Here's some photos to show what's up. Please forgive the horrid photography...not
my strength and I was a bit rushed.
...And one of the underside. I think I will hold the weathering where it is...I worry about
going overboard...which I probably have already!
You may notice a couple of bare patches where the small cockades were. I made the mistake
of forgetting about the decals when I was using some tape and managed to remove both decals
clean as can be.
Sometimes I wonder where my mind went!
So I guess I will have
to gain some experience painting circles. This should be interesting!
So that is where we stand so far. I will be working on the undercarriage next and then finish
the rigging, so watch this space, as they say.
Thanks for looking, and a big merci for the kind support you all have shown!
Cheers,
Ernie
