Hi,
The wings were primed and sanded for dry pigment application, similar to have been done in my D.VI last year. At this time I would like to imitate the wings structure more firmly before Aviattic decals being applied

Looking terrific! The preshading should work out well!

Thanks!
In the meantime I have done engine frame, which IMHO is quite hard task to accomplish...very fragile, must be very cautious once cutting out from the sprue
I have decided to have it opened so must have added PE part

Terrific application of the Aviattic decals and the pre shading has worked well!

Thanks!
The next step, which was rather tough one was dealing with attaching the engine bay to the fuselage..I have done several dry fittings before mission was finally accomplished.
