Hi Lukasz, Robert, Thomas. Nice to have you on board.
Some progress with the lawn mower project. Interior mainly done.
The canopy is a 2 half vaccu molded blister....not sure yet how to avoid the parting line right through the front and top window..??..That's something I have to work off during next week.

Jürgen, I have never heard about this plane. Very cool from you, that you build it and show us this rarity.

Thx Robert and S M for your comments.
Hi Stefan, amoungst others I have a weakness for x-projects/experimental crafts AND for short runner kits. This one was the perfect combination.

Those wheel bays definitely look better.
I'll have to try that Ultimate primer.

Thx Gorby & Guillaume. And yes, S M, I did this to reduce masking efforts. Hope it turns out ok then.

Nice progress. The dot camo looks very good, I have yet to try something similar.

Now the bird is in it's final colour. It is ready to receive the decals as a next step.

Hi there. After some weeks of absence, due to construction work on the house I was able to work a bit on Fa 269. A few hours more and I will be DONE with this one.

What an oddity of an aircraft! I had no idea it even existed. Tilt-rotor aircraft are a major engineering challenge nowadays still, not to mention 80 years ago.
Congratulations on the hard work and wonderful result! What a nice topic!

Hi everyone and many thanks for leaving your nice comments. It's always motivating, especially on such pain creating kits (at least during the build phase). Finding appreciation afterwards compensate a lot.
