Well, round two for me includes my first attempt at a biplane as well as my first Italian aircraft. Looking forward to this. Not sure of C/S just yet but lots to choose from on the decal sheet.

Cheers,

Jeff

Well atleast you have positive location points for the cabane struts.The CR 42 is a cool looking biplane and no rigging really.

NUMBER TWO? I'm still dithering about number one. I've always liked this one. Awaiting the build.

Go Jeff!

Production is underway on this build and I started with the engine and it's cowling parts. I managed to snap off one little piece and it has been devoured by the polystyrene gremlin. Anyway, here is the progress to date.

Will need to do a bit of putty work along a couple of seems but I want to let the glue cure for 24 hours before I do that.

Cheers,

Jeff
