Landing gear is on. There is a number of PE pieces to be added. It was easier being able to tilt the model.

Anyone going?

I have to agree. Glad to hear things are on the upward. Anyone heard from Peter?

I'm still working at this. Working on the various little bits and weathering.

I have the set of markers from AK and find it better to use white under yellow and red.

Decals are on. On to weathering.

I decided to use the decals. The green A is two layers.

Some of my birthday (last month) present arrived today. Funny thing, I just sent an email this morning about when it was going to be shipped.

Well, after the storms and then being away, I've finally put a coat of RLM66 on it. I've also decided that it will be Falck's Plane #3 with the Green Letter A. I have the EagleCal's decal set which I purchased to have the squadron marking and Falck's Ladybug marking. Soooooooooo, now the choice of painting the markings or using all decals. Hmmmm.

For those who might not have seen, the tours were announced and can be registered for. The Monitor or the Wisconsin or the Military Air Museum as I mentioned above.

I've got my hotel and convention reservations all made. So, the wife and I will be there. 2026 is supposed to be in Fort Wayne, IN. If you're going and have extra time, the Military Aviation Museum, Pungo, VA is a great place to visit. It's not on the convention tours. I was there ~3 years ago. Several of the docents were retired Naval Aviation folks. Impressed the heck out of my retired Navy Chief friend.

First it received a coat of MRP Primer Grey, then this....... Then this........ I've never done this sort of painting. I'm thinking about starting with RLM66 and then adding some Nato Black. Onward!

Thanks, guys!

All the big pieces are attached now. A few small pieces and small areas for putty.

Time to start putting the big pieces together. Might be interesting painting this one.

Thanks, it's about a 20" wingspan.

Some progress. The wings and tail are not attached. Some filling and sanding are still needed. I hope it fits on my shelf.

Close-ups after everything is glued.

Slowly. There are pieces included in the Eduard set that won't be seen or hardly seen only because I know they're there and look for them.

Cool!!!

Just about ready to close this up, just needs a bit of dirt yet.

Seat belts are done. Now to start putting some of these things together. See whether both of the shoulder belts will go through the hole in the seat, or I'll have to enlarge it a bit.

Stillllllll grinding away on the PE.

Continuing on with more PE parts.

Jeroen, I don't remember if I've asked, what resin are you using? Basic Anycubic resin or something else? Thanks
