It sure looks good, no matter which decals you're going to use :-ok
Regarding my progress... it's obvious, it's just that I didn't take pictures of each painting step and was busy finishing Huey. More from me later in the day :-wave

Well, as said earlier, here's my progress...
First picture shows amount of flesh on tail parts - I needed half hour to get from the left to the right side, for each pair. Becomes a little boring, correcting lots of stupid small things... :-wall
Meanwhile I set most of lozenge decals - Techmod was a little fragile, but with use of Mr. Gunze Sangyo chemistry set absolutely great. On the other hand, if Techmod was fragile, Roden was totaly delicate to handle, but came out OK, again with liberate amounts of Japanese chem...
Fuselages are also painted or, better to say, Berthold's received base coat of CDL. Both are Vallejo ModelColor.
Last two pictures show use of math to make lozenge for ailerons, and finished sample.
Next is to paint streaky cammo on Bertholds' and white on Degelow's, rib tapes on both... Continuing tomorrow... :-wave

Here's small update - lozenge finished :-jump, and by the way I have corrected parts I've scratched earlier on the top surface by applying same parts of "canvas" over it.

This morning I've finished lozenge, but tonight didn't want to bother my eyes applying rib tapes under artificial light, left that for tomorrow.
Nevertheless there's plenty of work, and painting was next in the order...
Here's my first try in streaky cammo - some correction is needed, but first result seems OK to me. Color used is Hu 86 Light Olive.
Second pic is another Fokker, although a little of it could be seen - when I mask, I really do mask!
Joke aside, I painted white using Gunze Mr. Base White spray. Since I'm working mostly with paintbrush I'm not so used to masking process - therefore better to mask everything than to leave some small spot uncovered ;)
Hope that tomorrow there'll be time for some rib taping :-wave
