Hi All,
Here is my 99 percent finished Lindberg 48th scale Jenny. It's more or less stock with the following mods. I ditched the Liberty engine in favor of a Copper State Models Hisso also making a new radiator. Also added a Tom's wire wheel set. Top wing decals are Americal Gryphon. Sadly enough there were only two on the sheet that I could use, so I scanned them and printed duplicates for the lower wings. All other decals were made in house by my usual scanning something close, then getting down and dirty and pushing pixels around. I replaced those weird stock seats with others from the spares box adding some other interior details. I cut in lower ailerons and added the control struts. I used one of the spare Roden Fokker D.VII props reshaping it before painting. The color scheme is of the Hisso powered jenny of Cole Palen's Old Rhinebeck Aerodrome. I built this kit as a break from dealing with lozenged Fokkers, but didn't plan on going stir crazy with all the rigging.

Salute,
Steve

Thanks John,
Not that hard, just tedious......as you will find out soon enough. I only broke and had to repair two before I finished. Much looking forward to your build!

Salute,
Steve
