Thanks for the comment Gregory, it is greatly appreciated! Like I said still a lot of touch up like restoring the wood grain where you see beige spots on the frames.

Excellent work, Rick! What a colorful interior. I look forward to the rest.

Cheers from NYC,

That's a gorgeous interior, Rick!  Makes me want to crack open my Gaspatch kit and get to work!  Lovely!
Cheers,

You are doing a fantastic job with the interior Rick, the colurs you have used are an excellent choice.

Thanks Des. As for the colors I am pretty much going by WNW advice as they are my ONLY reference for this build!

Rick,

Are you planning on swapping out the heads of those figures for Hornet heads?

MOSI

Michael,
I have no plans for a head swap. If I had your talent perhaps  8)
RAGIII

Well, personally, #1 gets my vote.  Love that scheme.
Cheers,
Bud

Well Bud, since you like it I will go with the Roll of the Dice and do the Eagle and Dog  ;D 
By the way, I am looking at two different approaches to the Pfalz: Either a known scheme in overall sibergrau with the black striping on the tail, or a generic Jasta 4 bird with Lozenge wings and no personal markings. ( Would give me a chance and reason to order the Aviattic Pfalz wing lozenge )
RAGIII


Sounds good to me !!!

I have done most of the cockpit rigging. I will finish, hopefully, later today. Then I will ad some Mock Turnbuckles from white glue and do the final touch up. The interior is just placed inside the right fuselage for photos.
