Thanks for kind words mates. Just hoping I will get it finished till end of August. Basically it shouldn't be a problem, but you never know what could came up.
BTW, what wood have you used for the main wing?
Terry, wish I could tell you, but I'm not exactly sure myself. It's some kind of "hard" wood, but not much harder in comparison to "soft" wood which I prefer using for making fuselage for this kind of models as it is easier to work with. You see, my late grandfather was a carpenter out of hobby (making chairs, tables and such), so I have some materials still left from him, but I'm afraid I'm no expert in knowing types of wood. Anyway this is first time I'm attempting to make wooden wings for a model, so if this proves successfull I will do the same for Bf 109E model in MTO.
Think my greatest challenge will be to make a metal propeller. It's much harder to do that with propeller without a spinner. For my Mustang model I had a spare one from plastic kit (and it was with a spinner), but not this time. This will need some careful thought.
As for paint scheme, my first choice would be as shown in attachment. Only thing is I'm missing some appropriate decals for it. I could draw them myself on ordinary paper as for recent Mustang model, but it just wouldn't be the same.
My other option would be to use decals for British Wildcat as I have spare decal from Hurricane kit which I will not use for MTO. However, I'm not sure if these would be appropriate for Wildcat, same as if RN used Wildcats in PTO at all.Also I'm not sure about camouflage scheme in that case...
