That is art! I have to take a first row seat here and see the progress. Very impressive 👍

Surely another build that will leave me speechless and striving to come closer to this level.

I like old planes from the early days of aviation. Your scrathbuild is fantastic. I admire how you can render all the little details in this scale. I wish you continued success in building this model and look forward to the sequel.

Hi Michael, I'm not sure. It should be out by then but I don't know if any sellers will be stocking it. I live in Australia unfortunately, so Telford is well outside my maximum range 😢

Added the large control wheel to the pilot's cockpit from soldered wire and heat curved sprue. I like the little brass hub in the middle 🙂

You seem to have really good control over your soldering. What tools do you have? That control wheel is impressive.

@Skyhiker I have an inexpensive soldering iron from an electronics store. It is nothing special, but the best thing I have is liquid soldering flux. Using that allows the solder to grab the surface and stick without requiring too much heat or flooding the area with solder.
@gorby Being a jeweller helped at first. But now I am finding that the modelmaking is helping me be a better jeweller! 👍

Wow, thank you Alec! Hopefully it will be in your mailbox soon 🙏
I added a few more pics. Test fitting the undercarriage and one of the prototype wheels.

Me too.
But obviously he doesn't show how he did the wheels to prevent us from fainting. 😉

Really nice n interesting subject 👍👍

@Michael Kohl, I made an album about the wheel back in January, showing the stages of construction. Spoked wheel test, 1/144 | Album by F_IV
@Skyhiker, Windsock Datafiles provide the best drawings. I also use the 3-view drawings from the Wingnut Wings kit for some areas.

Great progress 👍
I have a kit in 1:48, but your build looks much better and has more details!

Thank you, it's slowly coming along. Adding more details now that the main components are painted. It's always my favourite part of a build. 🙂

That's beyond me. How can you make such perfect little things in this mini scale? You have my great admiration. 👍
