A few pictures of the progress. The engine mount is on along with the carbs and intake pipes and one of the fuel tanks. A collection of cockpit components can be seen being readied for installation. It is slow going, but very satisfying.

PS Enjoying this so much I have already bought the next one in the series, an Albatros D.va

That's pretty intense!

A fairly insane level of detail.   Shocked

That's really excellent. Not sure I would have the patience.

It looks like the old Hasegawa kit. Have they started producing them again?

That would be my dream kit, but no (saying that I am working on it, just got to do lots and lots of begging, puppy dog eyes and foot rubbing Grin). The hasagawa kits are 1/8 in scale. This is 1/16.

I don't have much patience with small parts anymore, but that sure is a cool kit. Looking good so far!  Cool
