Fred me a hurry, so I will show you what I've done recently. The fuselage glued and closed, the wings established just to the photo. Total (together with the chassis struts, and wheels) is going to wash, and then I lay primer.

Although it may be easier for me to let go of a hamster from cage?... Hmmm... ;)

Is it safe to look in this thread? In the other one, there was a godzilla-eating hamster. :) Nice work on the RWD, considering what you started with, this is going to be a winner.

Oki!
And now it's time to paint. At the beginning of the primer. Old, gray Humbrol already dried in the sun.
Now I have to make corrections with sandpaper (primer, however, relentlessly pointing errors and bungle), and then the first shading of "Polish Khaki".

Nice work, your hamster has done a brilliant job on the cockpit and he does a good job with the airbrush as well.

Keep up the great work.

Hi!
Today my "umbrella" ... stood on the wings. I glued the wings and props and struts. And the chassis.
But in order to has preserved the symmetry plane, I had him pinned to a piece of extruded polystyrene. Tomorrow may already stand on wheels ... :)

And met at yesterday's walk Sand Lizard sends greetings, kisses and wishes of good health for his cousin Godzilla from Somerset and especially - of course - for her Owner :)

Hamster joins wishes for Splash. With regard to Godzilla - he diplomatically remains silent :)

Regards!

Thank you Tom for kind words! I must only clean of glue point and paint - normally a day or two. I hope - will be OK.
Only one color - "Polish Khaki" and decals.

Well, today I do not have time to paint, but I made my "umbrella" for a while. "She" stands on wheels, propeller turns and looks like this ...

Looking Good, Przemek. I like your 'rig'.

Ladne to wychodzi. Musze podpatrzec ten motyw z mocowaniem do utrzymania geometrii.

Thanks Marek! "Struts and wires" often require working with geometry. But I think that you ever heard such words - "yes, you can" ;)
Today, little - painted sheet metal on the engine and several amendments with primer. The closer to the end, the more of trinkets is to the correct, even in such a small plane...
