I think all is working again now. Please leave a comment on a photo somewhere if something you need is not working still.

Really nice work. What kind of tissue did you use here?

Just enough detail. The covering on this one is just as good as all your others! Damn near perfect.

Another great looking model.

Prop is plastic - hand painted, and the spinner is plastic, scammed from an old kit.

Struts are attached while wing is on jig. monofiliment 'pins' hold the struts into place.

More progress as assembly begins

Thanks. The prop is a silver Peck Polymers painted to look like laminations. The spinner is stolen from an 18" DPCM kit of an Albatros D.Va. Close enough. Yes poppy, I intened this to be a flyer.

Wow! Love that prop detail. A very uniqie way of drawing markings. Only an architect would think of that. Another good job from a prolific builder. Is this another flyer?

Thanks. By profession, I'm an architect. A lot of the graphic 'stuff' is stylistic techniques I've been working with for years. I also use enlarged markings underneath the tissue to 'trace'. Nothing that anyone wouldn't be able to do.

Superb! I've loved this plane ever since I built a plastic kit of it many moons ago. I will definitely have to build a stick and tissue one some day too. How do you manage to draw all your freehand markings so accurately?!

Progress to date
