Consistently brilliant work Dan, the wings look superb as does the rest of the model, the work of a true craftsman.

Oh dear me... Mighty impressive.
It will roar the engine, fly, spill the oil, shoot the Vickers, won't it?

Hello my friends and thank you for your support.
It is far from useless !
The assembly of these wings is not really difficult but tedious,
terribly tedious ...

Oh dear me... Mighty impressive.
It will roar the engine, fly, spill the oil, shoot the Vickers, won't it?

May be in another world...

So far only one wing is actually complete, low starboard wing .
In fact, Mr Hasegawa, teasing as always, partially put me in the lake.
In the foreground , the wing completed :



It sounds trivial, but I had to take off a lot of frames ...
For those who do not see the changes , here near the yellow arrows , top and bottom:



A wing of a Se 5a, a true one, in restoration :



Together , I still work on the upper wings ...





Have a nice WE!

As a testament to your work, had you said the real wing restoration was yours I would not have known the difference!

Thank you RAGIII! And thank you all for your visits ...

Wings, ailerons? Well here it is:






An idea of ​​the size ...



But before installing, which promises hours of sport, I have
a lot of things to add to the cell ...
Following the next issue!

Good week to all!

Thank you very much gentlemen!

Tonight, this bird is on his feet . You can see that my
" Photo Studio " is found a little cramped :






Legs :







The brass parts , you will be surprised ,  Hasegawa parts !
Changed, but ...
However, the legs , are " home made ​​" , I imagine you will do the
difference :



The pace of work , already slowed , will slow further , I must indeed take care
my boat, 1/1 scale ...

Good evening everyone !
