Any good cyano will work, mate

Tiny parts,great job!
I'm using Bison cyano glue; little drops placed with a toothpick...
The parts are effectively very tiny, and as today my hands was a little bit shaking, I preferred to work on some painting on the Albatros D.XI...

Last week I've applied the 5 colours lozenge decals on the lower parts. Like for the Fokker D.VII I'm using the lozenge made by Doug Baumann, and printed on clear decal sheet paper. I must say that next time I will try to print my lozenge decals on WHITE laser decal paper; the white paper being more opaque than the clear one. Using the clear one obligates to use a white primer.
...And today I've painted the seat: Vallejo marron brown for the seat; Vallejo red Leather for the couffin; Mister Kit German Dope for the seatbelts.
As said, I will continue that kit in the lost moments; other kits have priority.
And I really don't know actually if the kit is buildable. But it's a good trial platform for some techniques I never used before

Some days later I've applied burnt sienna (oil paint) on the propeller. I'm not 100% happy with the result, and I'm wondering if I will keep it as is, or to restart the work...
For the cockpit interior I applied burnt sienna with... sponge; then progressively removed the oil paint with another piece of sponge. I really like the result!!!
And one week later, I've painted the second face of the propeller with the oil paint

Well, this one is not a "priority"; I have all my time 
I'm working on it on "lost moments", or, as for today, when I'm too nervious to work on little PE parts on the Hellcat
The reason why I've begun to build that kit is to test a new variant technique for plywood rendering.
As base I've used Vallejo Yellow.
To complete the engine with some missing rivets, I've used 3D paint for tissue...
And as base for the propeller, Tamiya XF-59

Well mate, we will seen if there are really buildable or not... But at first regard indeed there are very nice looking!
The pieces are sanded, and separated between the "must have to be painted quickly" and "to be painted later"...
The propeller and the engine look great but they are asking for putty (Tamiya putty for the propeller; Vallejo putty for the engine).
The seatbelts are glued; and then, white primer on the elements

This is a kit I've begun some times ago. I was waiting before to show my build, because there are some problems with the kit and I'm not sure it's really a buildable one. But well, it's said; we will seen; and go for the show... 
The artbox is splendid. To be noted that on the actual airplane, the wings were 5 colours lozenge fabric covered and not doped linen.
At first regard, the kit himself looks to be a great one; but when you try dry fitting there are some problems, the most important being the base of the rudder... Lot of work in perspective...

Today, not many time again and I worked on another model. Just taken the time to glue three little PE parts...

Not many time for modelling today... I've just prepared the PE parts for the ammo boxes, and opened the ejection traps...
