Charles, it will be a start to finish build. I'm going to have to set up a place to do this, the end of the dining room table will be a No Go zone for a balsa kit I am afraid. Cuz this is where I work now.
Work today, so no progress on the F.2b till tonight. Got to sort out the exterior paint colors at the LHS.

Oh Igor,
It's because I work in the dining room.
And it's not a place I can be gluing up balsa.
The woman I love tolerates me using the end of the table for Small things.
I am afraid tacking things to the table is way far out of the question.
No spare room, no garage.......
Now if my M-in law would just...
First attempt at wood grain.......... did the light color first, bass-ackwards from the description by someone else. Did the brass leading edge trim, just to see....
Now I need to know the rotation of the prop, as there is a left and right prop.
Don't have any oils, so it was struggeling with acrylics. Then clear top coat on the prop.
The panel I used instrument decals. Punched them out to circles. Put them in water to slide off. Put a spot of floor polish on the panel, then slid the instrument decal onto the spot, pressed it on to kinda dry with TP. then covered with another spot of polish. When dry, finished off the whole panel with polish.
Will be painting the inside of the cockpit sides today.
