Beautiful workmanship.

Thank you all .

A bit of an update . The tailplane struts have been added.tailp[lane control links added. All the turnbuckles have been attached.
I've cleaned the engine up a bit and some "wobbly bits" that go on the front below the propeller.

So that just leaves the Fin/Rudder. The Rigging and the guns and install the engine.

Cheers

Thanks for the update Gordon. We have so few comments during the summer months.

Some progress.

Guns are done and attached. Rigging commenced. I am leaving the Aileron cables and horns till I've done the rigging.

Cheers

Nice detail with the fabric inspection covers.

Wonderful details when viewed up close.

The rigging is a bit frustrating so I'm doing it when the mood takes me.

Shouldn't be too much longer though.

I've completed the wing rigging. Moving on with the aileron control wires.Then the last bits of rigging on the undercarriage.
Looking at the cockpit I might have to knock up an instrument panel.

Cheers

Gordon

[Boomerang]

That's the rigging finished. Bit of quality control on the painting. Stick the engine, propeller and fin/rudder on and that will be it.

I might try and shoehorn an instrument panel in later.

Cheers

Hi Gordon

A model to be very proud of!! The detailing (wing ribs, undercarriage, engine, etc.) all look outstanding.
