Always love seeing your work Des, quality modelling!

I have no more DFW posters so how about a patriotic German postcard featuring a military award to celebrate



Warm regards

Thanks very much for all the very kind comments.

Just a small update. The wings are now painted, decals applied and the wings clear coated. Wings are just sitting in position for photo purposes. All the struts have also been painted, decals applied and clear coated ready for all the rigging holes to be drilled. Wheels still need to have the tyres painted and the propeller needs more work.

Des, That is an awesome scheme. I am really going to have to look into this one further! As always your work is equally awesome and I am really looking forward to the rest of the build!

Brilliant work as always, Des!  Your interpretation of the tail and wing streaking is awesome.
Cheers,

and Ailerons before attaching?

Cheers,
Ernie :)
