This is really shaping up beautifully, Martin.  Makes me want to pull mine out of the stash and get started on it.  Looking forward to the next update.

very nice work martin, i pretty much did similar to you on the interior framwork and such but i am not as far along with the build.i like how you made the observer seat. you did great job to make the engine conversion. i think i am going to cast a copy of the engine from my techmod freidrichshafen and follow similar to what red baron did on his ff33e build. you will have a great model when you finish.

p.s. i am sorry i have not forgotten about sending you the instruction for w-29 i just been busy. i will do it someday soon.

Thank you very much Scott. I habe also the Fe33 and I see to the engine. But together I use photos and the WNW instruction.
I can wait for the W - 29 instruction.

At first I make paper mask for the Lozenge. Then I take them over the APC Marine Lozenge and cut all part for the model off.
The fuselage is sanded and painted. At first I glue all etch parts to the fuselage.

Now the first decals are on the model.
But they are very strong and stiff.

This model keeps getting better and better with each update, the decals look great.

Thank you Des.
But with the decals are not easy to work.

The decals are really looking nice Martin! I tried to use those on my old Albatros W4 build and totally screwed them up. I respect what you have achieved!
