Time to to start a new project. This kit has been in my stash a while. Waiting for me to gather the courage. I will be building it in it’s current state: under restoration. Ofcourse with a few creative liberties. It has been excellently done before:

The above is my aim and i’ll be happy with half the result.

This is where i’m at:

Tough one, but interesting and very tempting. I'm looking forward to your build. I guess you know the SWS Concept Notes from Zoukei Moura. There are some detail pics of the very same airframe included, along with scale drawings and of course some WIP-pics

Cheers Rob

Nice, I'll be interested how you achieve the rusted rear edge to the wing/fuselage.

Well it’s not rust. All plywood that has started to come apart and showing its layers. I have some plans for that...
