but if the Brassin pit is a hands-down winner and much better overall, I might reconsider...

You've answered your own question there. Hands down winner imho. Same goes for the Brassin engine

For some reason the HGW inside and outside masks are too small. So had to add some additional masking tape. Eduard cockpit combing added too.

Nice work on the Focke, Jeroen. You are a brave man, adding PE to the canopy, a thing which always scares me. Do you glue it with Future or do you use CA?
I will not use HGW vinyl type masks anymore, as they never fitted properly, when I used them.

Cheers Rob

Did you make an apointment with LHS to visit for a duration of ten minutes? Time for me to have a visit again, it's been too long.

Nope. Collect at the door. Again. 
Managed to replace the kit Mg151 barrels with the Master ones’. The Eduard wheelbay upgrade is fiddly, but then again: so am i.

That PE work is so neat and tidy. I usually have CA everywhere but where I need it. 

Know the feeling Carl. Especially with PE belts, I usually end up with at least one part stuck to me.

Don't build too many planes Gus, people will look irritated, when they meet you  :rofl:. I know the feeling, you can't live without PE, but it can be a pain. Jeroen however, seems to be non stick, seeing the quality of his PE work.

Cheers Rob

PE, no problems at all - most of the time I glue it onto my finger or applicator - gettingthe part on the kit - that’s a whole other story

Keep ‘em comin

Thnx guys. Small steps. The wheelbay is tricky. Make sure to widen the holes for the mg151’s in the Eduard set a teeny bit. Otherwise the master barrels won’t fit through. You really need to plan the sequence here in subassemblies. 
 

In other news: my 285€ Iwata TR1 died on me last week. The screw thread of the nozzle in the brush somehow got damaged. This is not covered by the 5 year warranty. Needle and nozzle not covered. The airbrush store is trying to fix it. If not: i’ll buy a new one.

Jeroen

it’s always something that seems to go south when lest expected - especially now, when getting things fixed or replaced is a job in itself!
Keep ‘em comin
