Sorry for the late comment. Your correction of the grain direction turned out awesome! Lovely work all around!

Thank you!  :)
I added some PE parts and rib tape details on the wings.





And painted with Gunze acrylics









I will paint the markings and add decals later.

Cheers!
Rahmi

I really like the way this is looking. Tell us more how you did this paint... it's very well done.

Simply gorgeous, Rahmi!  As on all your Albatros, your wood tones are beautiful.
Cheers,
Bud

I have to comment again on how great your wood looks to my eyes! The paintwork on the wings is equally well done! You are making terrific progress and should be on the home stretch soon!

Thank you all! :)
@zavod44; I always use freehand airbrushing for painting and weathering. Base color -> base color + %10 white for light tones -> base color +%5 black for dark tones -> very thinned base color for filtering.

   I somehow missed this until very recently, it's very very nice! The wood is perfect and the finish very clean.
Nicely done so far,
Cheers,
