Please post it on the forum. No web site. The last time I went to a website I got slammed/virus.

TG
PS I would like to see your model on the forum.

To Ross M:

You're off to a great start, mate. I made a print of what you've done so far, as I have the exact same kit. Question for you: Where do the buttons go on the seat? I hope that the plastic sheet you added to the fuselage halves doesn't result in fit problems for the cockpit framework. Who's DrI are you building? Keep up the great work! Can't wait to see more.

Blue skies

Pete

P.S. How's the flying?

As far as fit for the "wooden sides" I added, I did a quick dry fit and it seems ok. But come time for glueing it all shut, well thats when we find out for sure.

I really havent decided who's plane I will be doing just yet. I do have to make up my mind soonn though. Maybe Kemps, but I am not a real fan of doing 'famous' people planes. We will see.

I did a small amount of painting today on it. Another coat of leather on the seat and and also did a bit of dry brushing for the wood grain effect on the wood inserts. Which no one will see anyway. But i need to learn how to do this for my 48th Lloyd as its all wood.

Once I have the frame work painted and fitted in one side I will do an update photo.

As to virus on my website. There wont be. I am one of the admin guys at MGO who host my site. We are clean. Its a major wargaming site and Cams Flanders mod for RBIII is also hosted on my site. I have never had any reports of viruses off my site or the server it lives on.
