Thank you, everyone, for cheering! It is great to have so many faithful fans  :)

Jacek, luckily the wooden pieces were "cut" by WNW themselves  ;)

Borsos, the wicker seat is indeed from the box but modified as per WNW website - that thick piece of plastic at the outside of the seat where there should be perforation was removed. It worked quite fine at the back, were it was vital as this part will be visible from the gunner cockpit. The sides were not so easy and I managed to break some of the strings when scraping the exterior but the sides will not be visible from outside, and on the inside some wash masked the mess.

Well, I understand those who consider this kit as WNW best. I cannot be sure if it is truly the best in their entire production line but it does assemble easily and without problems. The interior is now completed, with the exception for the seat belts. I have added the rigging (remembering the nightmare I invented with Snipe I have done this prior to the assembly) and control lines and besides this - two throttle linkages from black wire. The rest is from the box.










And testing how it will be with the fuselage interior painted CDL and aluminium.

Your interior looks even better all put together, if that is possible !

Spectacular work Prze, The clean finish and super detail of the cockpit are most impressive. I'm one of the great "fans" of this kit as being the best of WNW's releases, and you are certainly solidifying that impression! At this rate I may have to try to get another into my Stash! :o
Cheers,
Lance

Thank you, everybody, I am very glad you like my work on the Biff. So here is more: the seatbelts were added, the fuselage is closed, joints filled, sanded and polished. Still, I have to apply some primer to check the quality of this work to call it done. In short, I am now entering the phase of little mediatic, tedious but vital work on cleaning the joints, preparing the main assembly bits for the paint. It will take some time... And yes, there are many holes to be drilled for rigging.

Przemol nice to see your new production.
Recently, I have a lot of work, I am a guest in the house, and only now I noticed your topic.
As usual with curiosity I'll be here looking in.

Adam.

Very nice! How many hands did it take to run the wires through the fuselage, while closing it up and getting it all aligned?
