  George,
Outstanding rigging progress my old friend. Your Gaspatch turnbuckles are amazing. Looking forward to seeing more of your outstanding rigging.
Well Done!
Highest Regards,

Thanks Rob and Gregory!

PS: I just noticed that my Lewis magazine holders on the fuse sides were the wrong way around. They should be more forward, centered at the cockpit opening. Luckily they were dry fit and I've since corrected them, so ignore these in the photos. :-[

Brilliant work George! I particularly like the oil spatters on the underside of the upper wing, perfect! The rigging looks to be well planned but I really don't know how you guys get it all together with all of those lines hanging around. I would get hopelessly tangled  ::)

   Looking just a little better then absolutely spectacular, George! To echo Rick's comment, the splatters on the bottom wing surface are a really nice touch. Great work!

Wow! Looking really divine, PGTIV! Bravo.

The mechanical stuff looks great but I really love the painting. IMHO, you have hit it on the head with the rib tapes which are so often over emphasized. And, as the other gents have pointed out, the spattering on the upper wing is superb. But also the staining under the spatters looks so realistic. Again, its the subtlety that grabs me. And love the areas behind the cockpit. I'm glad you parents sent you to art school, Leonardo. It shows.

Cheers from NYC,
Michael

Hi George,

it looks so great! A wonderful Model. I love the weathering you made. :D

I am soon before the first rigging and i am already a little excited. ;)

Looking forward to see the next stage.

Kindly regards

Jörg

PS. My cursor hovers over the order button, I think I reward myself even at Christmas. I love the DH 2!

Thanks for the kind words, Ernie, Rick, von B, Lance, Michael, and Jörg! :)

Jörg, treat yourself to a DH.2 for Christmas. It's a great kit, you won't be disappointed! There are plenty of helpful members on our forum to help you with any questions you may have on the rigging, as I sure did.
