First step today: I corrected a big mistake I made in the cockpit!

The upper side of the interior was metal and no fabric; so it had to be painted in grey and not dope... I made the correction with a nr1 paintbrush and Vallejo Light Grey.

I simply cannot live with such mistakes under my eyes...  :-red

The engine is finished: I had to struggle with some very tiny PE elements...

Thanks, mate. But it was not a piece of cake, the elements are soooo tiny...

Why on Earth did Roden do such a worse job in 1/32 than Eduard in 1/48?
Suppose that's why Eduard is Eduard, while Roden is Roden... :-think
Nevertheless, good work Daniel! :-ok

Thank you Profa! I understand what you mean with Roden, there is a big difference of quality with Eduard. Roden makes honnest job; Eduard makes jewels...

As I was zen this morning, I've continued the work with the PE...

I finished with what was a very patient work, but what a jewel!!!

With the machinegun, Eduard did a fantastic job of detailing! I have chosen to glue all the elements before painting; that will be made with a paintbrush of course.

...And now, I'm drinking a good, strong coffee...  :-wch
