  1. I think I'll do a third, but next is an Albatross DVa with Pheon's "Wappen zu Kassel".
  2. Flipping superb! Must get mine finished
  3. Stunning! Love the rigging. Mines at the same stage using EZ line. The struts arent tricky really. Good engineering.
  4. Oh don't be put off! Do your favourite..... Il be doing a third.
  5. Well the decals snuggled down perfectly with Microsol. The struts to paint, then rigging.
  6. I thought the struts were grey with black bottoms and the cabane struts black? The undercarriage is black too, unlike Rowans profile. It's in the pheon booklet photo. Nice work.
  7. I must admit I was basing it on the kitty hawk at hendon
  8. I think F2527 is missing the fuselage codes. They arent on the sheet. I'll email Rowan.
  9. A great set of decals! I goofed the tailplane. It needs a silver background as the Sqn marking is translucent. My goof!
  10. Yeah the top wings a bit fiddly and I pinged the cabanes on both sides. I did a Snipe since then. Would you like to see photos?
  11. Great to see another built. I am just starting my 2nd . It's a great kit. Can I suggest a couple of this to ease a fellow modellers pain? I found that the rudder codes grabbed hard when I put them on over the stripes. I hadn't futured the stripes first, which would have helped a lot. Secondly the really fiddly bit is the telescopic gunsight which has to go thru the windscreen. I did it with the top wing on. It would be easier to fit the sight to the upper wing with the windscreen slid on and then fit the top wing and then reach gently thru with forceps from above to get the windscreen in its slot, rigging the centre panel last of all once the wing is on. I have also failed twice now to get the front engine piece with the rods off its sprues without snapping some rods!
  12. Surely it wouldn't be a Sea Whirlwind? The Westland Waterspout!
