Thank you very much Terri and Patrick.
Terri It is a very smal different for the wing cord. I sanded this little different.

The bigger different is the wing span.

The fuselage and lower wings primed white. After drying, the body is primed dark brown and the metal portions provided with aluminum paint.
For the wood I use HGW the dark decals.

The engine requires some refinements.
The valve stem is made of brass wire and the ignition cable must be attached.
The hood and the engine mount has been thinned out and painted.
