Hi Kamil,
It's really starting to come together now.
I had the same areas that needed filling.
If you are not sure about the exhaust pipes on the engine, you could replace them with micro-tube, as I did.
How I did this is detailed on page 40 of the W.29 build log on my web site (Gallery 2) (site link below) - click the PDF icon to download it.
Maybe the exhaust pipes could be less silver in colour?

Nice progress, Kamil.

As for the shake-and-bake character, no kits are like this. WNW ones are close to it but, still, not exactly so. I have already built 22 kits of their making, currently working on the 23rd one, and every single one of them required some puttying, sanding, polishing, removal of form ejector push marks, cleaning some flash or mould-halves joints marks... Even the nicest bits from WNW kits require some preparation. And it is good. If you want shake-and-bake - go for Lego bricks :-)

Cool, a night fighter W.29.

All kidding aside, looking great. Your work will pay off in large dividends shortly.

Hi Mike!

I saw your PDF - great guide! I'm very sad that I didn't used metal pipes but for that moment i can't replace them. They are glued with CA and I'm affraid I could damage the details removing the pipes. The same problem is with the colour od the pipes. They must stay as they are.

Hi!

I'm working on CDL in the bottom of Hansas wings. I made "preshading" of the wing structure. Now I'm trying to get the yellowed linen effect.
Any advices before it'll be to late?

"Preshading":

And first painting effects (the left ones):

And after drying in "sun" light (it was cloudy...):

Very nice work on the preshading/see through. Looking forward to more

WOW! Thanks Giuseppe!

Wings and stabilizers are finally painted. It's time for crosses and weathering but I must wait for masks

For now I'm going back to fuselage.

Hi everyone!

Is Naval Lozenge expert here?

I'm looking for informations about applying Naval Hex on W.29 wings. Theoretically it should be a printed linen, so it should be applied from the linen rolls but... i can't see any connection lines in the photos.I haven’t found anything about it in lit
Anyone knows sth about it and could help? I’ll be grateful.
