I love your wing and your wheels :) I think weathering and shades are spot on!!! At least to my liking ;)

After more than 2 years I`ve paused this built, I found several weeks ago my way to restart my Spad XIII model. In this case pls let me say: " Excuse me for my delay."
Maybe you know that, you can`t find no more patience and/ or strength to be steady with your project. All the masking, demasking and masking again, was killing my patience two years ago.
For now I can say it goes straight forward.

The entire model is for now in gloss varnish finished and is waiting for painting with Alclad "Light Sheen". Meanwhile I`ve started the rigging with 0.12mm thread.
I`m not sure what colour I`ll be choosing for the rigging. Gunmetal or Darkgrey?

I`m a bit afraid if I`m forward looking to glueing the upper wing on to the lower wings with all of those fragile struts!

New to me as well and absolutely mindblowing! Really great SPAD and Ford-T conversion.

   I've missed this until just now as well. Your "checkerboard" finish is spectacular and the weathering superb. This will be a stunning model when completed.............. keep those reports coming! 8)

I too am so pleased that you have come back to this project which you set aside for very understandable reasons. The chequers on that are super - made my eyes go funny just to look at them, so how you managed to paint them I simply cannot imagine. Really looking forward to seeing this completed.
