Thanks jerry. For me, the essence of the stick and tissue model is the translucent quality of the finished product. I love seeing the light shine through the tissue when the plane is in the air.
Glad to hear the surgery went well. |

i absolutely love your handling of paper for color and markings. i am typing with 1 hand. the sugery seems to have gone well, but will not know for weeks or months. depends on if feeling and strength comes back in hand. |

Right now I'm still sorting out the trim of the plane, but it looks promising. There's a lot of wing on this plane. |

markings are kit supplied decals |

Canopy and wing fillet are in place. A black strip of tissue to represent the 'wing-walk' really hides a lot of blemishes. |

Section colors are added |

Wing Fillet area that needs some slight sanding / shaping, then covering. |

For this yellow-wing scheme, the tailfeathers are white - USS Saratoga Air Group |

Covering begins. The white tieeue is 'misted' with silver floral spray. Not much is needed. |

Mock-up before sanding. Althtoutgh not called for on the plans, I typically fill in the nose area with sheet wood for strength and some added weight |

Bones for the Vindicator. There are 'cap strips' on both surface of the tailfeathers that were eventually sanded to a profile shape. |

Realy looks great, right out of Dive Bomber. I would love to do a vindicator in the mariings from Midway off the cover of the Squadron-Signal book. Did the markings ocme with the kit or did find them some place or die you make them. |
