gorbyThat's a stunner Frank. You've even exceeded your own high standards. Your best yet (probably until the next one 🙂 ).

JohnIncredible build from nose to tail. The whole thing is amazing but the cowling alone is a work of art.

Robert PodkońskiLook absolutely realistic (save the ones upside down, of course 😄 ). Fantastic work as always, Bughunter!

Kyle DeHartLooks like it could take off any second. What a truly amazing build. I don't have the superlatives to properly describe it.

bughunter 作者Now I have to say Thank you for your wonderful comments, and the likes.
Gorby, not every "next project" has the chance to look this good (due to the big amount of real wood here).

Bernhard SchrockAs usual I discover new detail with every new round of looking the pictures 🙂 Top notch! By the way: very interesting baldachin strut layout.

bughunter 作者Thank you Bernhard!
Regarding the strut layout: I mentioned this in my build report. The layout makes really sense, as I noticed during adding the long struts, how fragile it was - until I added more struts. Each and all of them are needed.

Just wow😳, congrats!

bughunter 作者Thank you very much! Only modellers can guess roughly how much work has gone into it 👍

bughunter 作者Yes, something around this. I do not track hours (on purpose - I want to avoid this "project management" shit: Planning replaces coincidence with error!). It is finished, when it's done.
The cockpit and the wooden struts have taken many hours, and my experiments with the complicated metal undercarriage where the first tries were not successful or good enough.
The next one will be an relaxing oob build. Yes, really Out Of the Box! I will replace only the airscrew with bearing. Of course with many available accessories, but no scratch work.
Is there any interest in a few pictures anyway?

Kyle DeHartI can't believe it. Out of box, you say? 😂 Definitely interested in watching the OOB build process as well. Post the photos!

bughunter 作者Thank you Villiers!
Kyle, a new Album was started, more pics soon.

Christoph KunzI can't believe you are realy going to do oob.
But I will take a seat for sure.

bughunter 作者Thank you Christoph, but you will need to follow the other Album. This one is finished 😉

bughunter 作者Thank you Mathieu and Guy! The wood looks so nice in the cabinet 😉
