Why stop there ...fuselage insides also got coverd with Aviattic's 4 colour lozenge with the weight table from the soare decal box applied reversed . this still needs to be sprayed with dull coat for a dusting of pastels to tone it down . Engine is also done and installed in the airframe . Not much of this can really be seen once button up so I didn't spend much time in this area . The decals laid down beautifully ! Didn't have to use any sol at all and had no issue with them siding off the paper backing this time around .

Nice to see the D.VII back in production, Terri. Great
job on the woodgrain, especially in the smaller scale.
Following along happily with your build. :)

Cheers,
Ernie :)

Got the pit finished up but not without troubles . Those PE switches on the instrument panel I ended up losing a few to the carpet monster and decided that they will be left off , these parts seem to be getting hard to see and hold with the tweezers . I did add control lines to the rudder bar and the control column . Just looks to bare with out them . Helping to line things up shines got added . The location pins just don't cut the mustard with Eduard kit's .
