Brad, Beautiful clean work as always! As for the glitch in location of the magneto and pump- it is nice to know you are human and not a "Modeling God"

Brad,
Question without notice; I think I have asked you this before and that you have told me, but if so, I have forgotten completely what the answer was.
What do you use for your flat clear coat?

Cheers,

Hugh

Thanks for the encouragement and tips guys, despite the small mistakes!!

Hugh - I uze Gunze clear flat thinned with Tamiya acrylic thinner at about a half/half ratio for my clear coats.

Cheers!

Ok folks, the fuselage is now together as are the flying surfaces. I have now moved to enhancing the nose area. I have added the bottom lip to the cowling seen on the F.I from styrene. Interestingly, both Roden and PART missed the prominent under-nose panel. I added mine from sheet plastic, with wire for the hinge, and etched metal pieces from the spares box to represent the myriad of clips seen on this panel. I have also extended the ailerons to be the larger versions seen on the F.I and early production models.

Brad,
Nice work.

What did you use for the stitching?
Cheers,
Bob
