Looks geat Lou, the bigger models have more scope for detailing, I wouldn't have any room to put them at that scale, I struggle to find room for toon size, regards Paul J.

I had to take the glued tail feathers to drop the tail plane lower on the fuselage. Compare to the previous photo.

Second coat of yellow. I anticipate another two coats. The top wing has yet to be fully primed.

Painting is completed and awaiting assembly and rigging. The wind screens has black undercoat followed with yellow. Note the center panel has the yellow already applied over black. When viewed from behind the frame work will be visible. I have since done the remaining frames.

Just some questions Lou.

What glue did you use for the windscreens?

Directly glued or with a tongue and slot?

Cheers
