Thanks guys, just an update to show you im not slacking. Here are the bottom 2 wings, once the roudles are painted it is a couple of coats of fuel proof and then onto the wing struts. Not long now folks

I try Martin, didnt do a bad job on the top wings i think. As these were hand painted originaly it adds to the scale look if your off a little lol

So close to the finish Andy! Noone could accuse you of being a slacker the effort is truly inspiring!

[Guest]

Further progress on the lower wings guys. There will not be many more posts on this project after this one im sure. Im getting closer to that light at the end of the tunnel now, i can just make out the landscape

I have one more coat of the blue to add to the one wing and then fuel proof both. After that its just the struts and the rigging... they shouldnt take long to do. I need to add some scale detail to the struts so there will be a little work on them that ill post up.

Looking very good Andy closer and closer to your goal now,,, a truly insperational build one your Ma would be well pleased with and i'm looking forward to the final showing just like everyone else.

[Guest]

Thanks Papa. Its been a long slow build but i have enjoyed every minute of it. Im sure The Old Dutch would be proud of this one. Its a great tribute to end my plane building on. After this one i will never build another plane again.

Cheers
