Those ribs look good enough to eat  (just joking).  Incredible work, they look fantastic.

The 1/48 Aviatik DI is there to put the 1/18 scale in perspective.

As no superlative is fitting I will just say Amazing! I love the comparison with the 1/48th kit!!

Agree with Rick, interesting comparison/preview in a smaller scale, both beautiful.

Martin, you have the patience of Job and the artistic talents of Michelangelo.  I have always enjoyed following your builds and this one is no exception.
Cheers,
Bud

    This is a joy to sit back and follow, Martin, some REAL Modelling happening here for our viewing pleasure! 8) If the 1:48 version is any indication this is going to be spectacular!
