Can't help but be impressed by the effects,Brad,but something leaps at me in the last photos,ironically due to the pristine wood effect!
I posted some time ago,following the first pics of Ray Rimell's build,about a little error I thought existed in Roden's panel lines(and which he had not corrected)where they had correctly moulded a horizontal edge passing just behind the highest cambered part of the lower wing root,but also a further panel line,parallel and a few mm higher,above which they moulded the rigging points,i.e.too far above the wing root. If I have failed to express myself let me refer you to the Windsock Datafile Special,photo 108,page 42. Of course,I could be having a 'senior moment',so maybe some of you more expert types can agree/shoot me down in flames.
