Great update George, you are really "murdering" that PC10, outstanding results!. I'm wondering how the wrapped under joints went? (or does that get done later as a separate step?)
Cheers,
Lance

Brilliant work on the pre-shading, George!  You've nailed it!
Cheers,

Lance, to answer your question about how I did the wrapped under joints, I didn't. I don't know how accurate it is but I noticed some photos where it didn't seem to wrap under. The two colors met in the middle. Yeah, it's probably wrong.  :-[  I will have to do the wrap under thing correctly next time when I cover my Pup wings because they definitely have an obvious wrap under. I'm still thinking about how I want to do that because I want to use the clear decals, not the ones printed on white.

George,
   On the contrary, not necessarily wrong at all, even the data File photos of 6011, my subject, could be interpreted as having no wrap under. That's the beauty of this Hobby, there are, apparently, no absolutes! :-\
Cheers,
Lance

Thanks Terri and Lance! :)

Thanks for that info, Lance. I was feeling like I was taking the easy way out, instead of pushing myself. Now my laziness is justified! Lol ;D

Very nicely done with the Aviattic decals George, there seems to be so many possibilites with these decals with different base coats and different techniques in shading.

Thanks, Des. I'm really liking the look that the decals give. They are worth the extra effort it takes to apply them. I commend Richard for creating a very well thought out and well executed product.

George,
   If you have the Data File check Photo #81 on page 32; #6011 with apparently no "wrap under", at least not on the upper wing. Then there's Photo #82 on the following page, #7849 with very clear wrap under on both wings.... ??? Not laziness, maybe accuracy on your part! I'll be following your progress with great interest!
Cheers,
Lance

Long Overdue Update

Contrary to what some of you have asked, I have not shelved this build. I'm just really slow and easily distracted. :-\ :D

I've finished most of the painting on the wings, fuselage, and all the other bits like spars, wheels, engine etc. Now i just need to start gluing all the sub assemblies together and start rigging. Oh the rigging! :o

Here are some pics of my progress.













Thanks,
George

Really superb work, George! You've clearly been doing your homework looking at images of the real thing. The level oh highlighting on the ribs, etc. is spot on, IMHO. Engine splatter is excellent.

This is very exciting!!

Cheers from NYC

PS Now get back to work and stop being distracted by images of Senorita Cruz' baby sister!
