Steve that is one of little wooden boxes, in which you get chocolate bottles filled with Schnaps  . Nice looking aircraft you have conjured up there also  |

This plane looks cool as an Inuit's nuts. What? Anyway, the build looks like one of those toon models. What a strange shape it is. |

Hi all, Hit a bit of a wall on this one, the wing to fuselage joint just won't vanish! On the real bird the whole thing is plywood covered by dopped cloth so no joint is visible at all. Here's where I am after three fills of acrylic and super glue...  Hopefully I'll get it sorted this weekend. Also snapped one of the, very thin, undercarriage supports. Did my best to fix it. It looks much better under MK1 eyeball   That's it for now |

Steve she still looks good to me fella  . Wing roots are still a big problem for me, I'm so scared of sanding of the surrounding detail after a heavy filling session  . As for the landing gear, I can't really see were it broke off. |

Steve, nice work on getting the wing root sorted. Trying to do a wing root seam can be challenging if there's no natural panel line.

Looks like you are getting there to me.
As for snapping things, that’s like loosing bits on the carpet. I can honestly say I have never done either.
Why has my nose suddenly grown 10 inches?
