Excellent work on the PC10, Prze.  I'll have to see if anyone stocks Pactra down here.

Excellent shading technique on display, not overdone as is often the case...

Hi Mark
The last 2 weeks have been the busiest in my buckling career - off the chart!  :o
Sadly, the Pfalz has suffered as a consequence. I guess you can't have your cake and eat it.

Hi Bob:

Glad to see that buckling is doing well or to use a colloquialism:  "Bang On"!  If you had your cake, you could eat it too.  Looking forward to updates on the Pfalz.

Best

Thank you for watching and kind comments.
I have finished "dirtying" the nacelle (except for the bottom side)






The struts are almost ready - the control cable pulleys and some dirt on the cabane struts closest to the engine will be added.




And some work on the wheels has been done.

Goodness me this looks really impressive PrzemoL! I have done the Eduard 1/48 version but this is something else. In the stash, I have a number of WnW models for when I make the inevitable change of scales, including their DH 2. You've just moved it up the agenda.

Best wishes
Nigel

Really nice job "dirtying", Prze.  very life-like. The wheels look very well done
as well.  Very good progress.

Cheers,
Ernie :)

Prze,
   As Ernie points out your shading/dirtying/highlighting is truly remarkable. You've really done a magnificent job so far, this is going to be a real sweet heart of a Model when completed. Nice work!
Cheers,
Lance

I agree with the above - I lovely the weathering, especially the folds etc in the fabric.... was this done using an oil wash?

cheers

Thank you, everybody.

FF, the surface detail is indeed emphasized with wash.

A progress? Well, I have completed staining the airframe around the engine and on the underside. I have also attached the cabane struts. They have some tolerance at their sockets, so to keep the geometry right, I have used the top wing put on them and aligned with respect to the lower one. Today I plan to add the interplane struts - some photos will follow then.
