You have preserved samples of fabric in your country so you can always check out who is the best.

Right. But here it's just a question of decals quality...

Excellent progress on yours, mate.

Yesterday I was dealing mostly with Degelow's plane - smaller parts, struts and similar...
I was extremely careful, so only one strut broke when detaching from the sprue. Interesting is that it is same as the Berthold's one which is still on the sprue, and broke at exactly the same spot :-dal (pics 1-2)

Later I attached lower wing(s) to the fuselage of Degelow's plane, and this morning, along a coffee, thought of quick-filling of the gap using Tamiya basic putty. This plain stupidity just shows my morning state of mind, when coffee is still undrunk :-roll
Other plane received cross, which'll be overpainted these days...

After 5 coats of MicroSol, the upper wing is finally OK... But asked for minor corrections, some lozenge being damaged in the process...

And I'm continuing to place the ribs...
