Because the 2 kits have a lot of the same paint, I plan to build the Mossie and the Bat together.
This is everything, there is no cockpit wall detail and it has a thick, small canopy. The history of it can be found here

It says it was "all wood"; I think that implies a fabric skin as the whole thing weighed 963 lbs with pilot. The instructions have no callout for the interior, and I haven't found anything (but I'm sure someone will know) so my first guess is wood floor and insturment panel; linen sides, black stick and interior green seat.
I have not done any brass before, any recommended sites with good instruction, or what has worked for you.
Question about category: How is this determined? My skill, how much detail is added to existing kit, or complexity of the kit itself.
One more thing, I can't seem to control where the posts go, when I start one, they end up in the bottom of the thread, outside the blue line.
