Fantastico Edo!!!
I would be the most happy modeler in the world if I made every model of mine in such an "inaccurate" way!!!

A real beauty, Edo. The rigging is very impressive and the build and paintjob is done with high accurancy. I just hope, Edgar (CSM) hears my prayers to do it in 1:32nd.
Bye,

thank you friends!
your comments are very welcome!
Rigging is actually semplifiend a bit, as i did not study the rigging scheme enough.... particularely in the engine area... you have to look very carefully comparing the pictures on the manual closely as not in all of them the rigging is the same and to get it all correctly you have to “blend” them all together. Actually rigging schemes is a bit a let down, in my opinion, compared to the rest of the building manual.

there used to be an entire forum section dedicated to “Mastro Bertl” way, but i cannot find it.... maybe Dave can help us here....
anyway, Bertl is a master in using colour pencils to paint laminated propellers and I used his method too. not much lamination is showen here as I understand that in French props had a more uniform look....

thank you again for the kind comments and encouragement, much appreciated indeed!
ciao

 Thanks.
I searched his content for a prop tutorial. I remember it when you said about the water color pencils he used.
His content is good , no pics but lots of links to good stuff.
