Very nice model and clean build Andy! 

My prediction about you finishing your model quicker than I with mine.

Cheers,

Dan

Thanks Dan! I guess I wasn’t about to let a little thing like a wet cellar hold me up. To be honest if I hadn’t moved my painting setup, I would still be waiting! From the looks of things, yours shouldn’t be too far behind (?).
 

Thanks to everyone else for your kind remarks! 
 

Andy

Congratulations on your nice work.

 

This is a model I would like to sometime scratch build.  One of the more interesting WWII planes as they were made from wood.  Easy to build, production could be about anywhere.  Lots of women built these.

 

Not exactly high on my project list.  I do look at the plans from time to time and speculate cutting out parts on the laser.  Would not even be a back burner project. more of something in the pantry. Or still out in the garden.

 

Still I find logs like this inspiring.  Thanks for sharing it with others.

Yes Andy, it is almost completed. Presently I am working at the rockets that the Mossie carried under the wings. There are 8 of them and I always find this repetitive works a bit long and boring.

Best regards,

Dan

The presiding worked only in a couple of places,

Looking good there Sir!as to the pre-shading on a solid color like this the option of paint then if good and straight lines do the shading and repaint in light coats to desired effect works nice on RLM 76/78
