Aviattic`s decals review (in Polish) at: http://www.kfs-miniatures.com/1-32-linen-effect-decals-wal…/

I`ve completed the instrument panel with added petrol lines. Also, the turnbuckles were added to the rudder bar and the control stick.

Best regards

Nice! I will watch to see in this big scale, which details I missed on mine.
Hope to be able to finish it in the next weeks (so a mini group build) ;)

Cheers,
Frank

Looking excellent so far -how did you paint the "matting" in the gunner's position?

Many thanks for your kind words!

It`s been painted with oils, clear yellow/orange mix and DUST Oilbrusher on top of it. After that clear varnish and brown wash were applied.


The cockpit is almost ready. I`ve added some smaller scratch-built details like the magneto switch or the petrol installation plumbing.

Thanks a lot! Przemek it`s going to be "T" D8084 with the red stripes on the  upper wing. I`m not very fond of the Brisfits with the four-bladed props, so my choice was somewhat limited.
The cockpit is almost completed. I`ve decided to replace the original seatbelts with the HGW aftermarket ones. They are extremely good and much more to scale.



Best regards

It looks great!

So much of this work will be gone forever when it's buttoned up though!

I wish WNW would pump out just 1 "skeleton" model with all the guts showing.  I think they are much more visually interesting than the closed up models in these early stages of construction.

I realize most modelers might not prefer that, but not sure why 1 or 2 kits couldn't be build in this way.

Mix it up a little!
