Roland DVIa - drainage holes

Hello guys,
I'm working on the WnW Roland DVIa and was wondering if there are more tnan one drainage holes on the bottom of the Roland DVa's fuselage, similar to the Albatros DV/DVa fuselage? On the attached picture is visible one, but are there any others?
thank you in advance for the answers!
Best regards,
Sasho

The answer is most definitely yes. Even though I've never seen them I know they are there. There will be one just forward of each fuselage former. This is standard practice.
A quick look online finds these photos from Wingnut Wings-
Be mindful of the brad lines, that will tell you where the formers are. By the way, thanks for getting me to look. I found a number of good photos online I hadn't seen yet. Check here-

Thanks for the link, Dave. The photos are really exceptional and I definitely will be going back to them when my DVI emerges from the Stash.
Cheers,
Lance

I'll be waiting to see how both of your builds come out. I want to build one of these too some day. I also plan on doing some profile art too.
