But before I can show my build, I have to know if this area (red arrow) was wood or painted clear dope

Olve, keep the photos coming mate. Both builds please. :)

I have seen a photo (somewhere) of a Nieu 11 with plywood covered cockpit. So I go for that

The inside is painted with Gunze Sangyo H85 Sail Color but any tan color will do

Forward parts was painted with Burnt Sienna Oil color

Then removed with a clean cloth

Then a Wood Effect decal from Spada Decals

And a photo with the inside frame
http://www.luftwaffe.no/Albatros/Nieu6.gif

The frame is painted with Tamiya TS 46 Light Sand, then with Burnt Sienna Oil color, then removed with a dry pensel and finally a cote of Tamiya X-26 Clear Orange. But it seems that my fingers have removed some of the color during handling

Hello again

The inside looks something like this (minus the seat):

But when you close the airframe, little is seen
