Amazing work Dan, it is really starting to show its true size now that the bottom wings are on.

Nothing short of brilliant Dan, the rigging looks superb and the adjusters very intricate.

This is amazing! Are you leaving it as an open frame, or will it all eventually be covered? I'm just thinking that if it is all covered up it would be a shame to hide all this superb work.

I can't believe I missed so much of this, Dan!  You've made remarkable progress since I last checked in.  She is absolutely stunning now, as she sits.  She will be a true museum piece when she's finished.
Cheers,
Bud

With the massive size of this model you will need to fit a wide angle lens to your camera  :) seriously though, this is a true masterpiece and deserving of all the praise that has been given.

   I have a Wingnut  SE in my stash, and when the Build starts I'll be referring to this Thread at great length. This is an absolute classic of a project, the detail is incredible! Other then being a bit small to climb in to I don't think it could be any closer to the original, simply magnificent!
Cheers,
Lance
