Excellent! Thank you all.


And thank you Przemol, Rowan and Bo for the input.. That's all been extremely helpful  ;D

Bud: that's good news, I'd all get one ASAP!


Hopefully more pictures soon...

So..

The oils have dried allowing me to start gluing..





Nothing but good things to say about the kit so far.. The fit seems very good  ;)





Look, there's even a loo..  ;D





Cheers,

Guy

Spectacular progress, Guy!  Mine went in the post this morning, so it should be here soon.  I'll have to start it as soon as it arrives.
Cheers,
Bud

Hello Guy:

Your workmanship is outstanding!  The interior is clean and neat and looks the business.  I can't wait for WNW to release theirs in 1/32nd.  Your guns and engine are top notch, breakage notwithstanding.  I saw a video on you tube with a crew getting in the airplane and taking off, I can't for the life of me find it again.  It is certainly a large airplane.  I am looking forward to seeing you progress through this build.  You are certainly making good progress so far.  A testimony to your workmanship and the precise molding by Gaspatch. 

Best

Thanks  ;)

Yes, the 1/32 Salmson will certainly have a great deal of presence  8) It's not a subject I would have originally asked for, but having got into it, it's a very interesting model and I'm really looking forward to painting the camouflage colours  :)

You are making excellent progress on a remarkable model, the instrument panel and propeller are brilliant, your painting skills are superb, looking forward for the next set of progress photos.

We just got home from the UK, the Salmson is the WNW of 1/48, you'll really like it Bud ( as any of you in 1/48)

Fantastic build Guy,
so many sharp details together with your stunning paintjob. I really like the painted wood grain. Thanks for sharing your pics.

Hi Guy,

Your interior is magic. All these marvellous details painted with such craftmanship. Assembled this will be one of the nicest cockpits I have ever seen. Amazing!

Kind regards
Patrick

  Guy,
Outstanding progress to date my friend. Very impressive detailed interior. She truly does look like a mini WNW kit. Keep up the excellent works.
