Thanks guys for all of your comments and interest! I have one more work day tomorrow and then 2 days to work on the DVII. I hope to get the wing mounted soon!

Wow! Great work with the lozenge.

The yellow painting with the lozenge in the wings makes the model very eye catchy... superb Rag!

Cheers

you're doing a beautiful work on those wings!!!
I'm somewhat intimidated from the lozenge scheme, I save this wip as reference, if you don't mind. ;)

Thanks Zabu  I appreciate the comments! I think that the yellow is certainly an Eye Catcher, I am glad you agree!!

Do Not be intimidated by Lozenge! Aviattic has made this process very easy with their Cookie Cutter Sheets for the DVII. I might also add that the 4 and 5 color joined sheets also make applying Lozenge easier if not quite as easy as the Cookie Cutter approach!

Hi RAGIII

I just wanted to add my congratulations on the convincing fuselage yellow. I've really struggled in the past to handle that particular colour, without it ending up like a bunch of daffodils or lemons.

Best wishes

Outstanding Rick. This is really a handsome bird. The wings are terrific. Decals are masterly applied. Great modeling!

Kind regards

She's really starting to look the business now, Rick.  Better and better
all the time.  You will have quite a striking model when you are done.
Wonderful work!

Cheers,
Ernie :)

Great work so far, Rick

The lozenge on the upper wing looks spot on.

Rick this model looks really great.  One of the reasons I like the German offerings is for the interesting colour variations and this is a prime example...
