Looks like another good entry, you'll have fun with that paint scheme and are you planning on having the collapsed undercart....................

Thanks for the tip on the rivets Glenn. They turned out great.

No collapsed landing gear Vic. Just sitting in it's wheels with normal where. I fell in love with that camo scheme when I saw it and just had to try it, wish me luck as I ordered the decals last night and am committed.
No problem Andy. What did you put rivets on?

Yep Glenn, it is an E1. This unit had some with the later canopy; there's a pic of one on a beach in the Jagwaffe series.

Nothing - yet.
My CF5 has raised riveted panels behind the cockpit seat but I'm not sure I'm going to be replicating them.
That will be nice challenge to get the scheme done Glenn, good luck with it mate!

Just about there Wayne. I need about one uninterrupted hour at my bench to finish up both the Goblin and the Tiger (not including the base. Da*m evil grass!!
) The trick is getting that hour. Hopefully tonight, and pictures tomorrow.

Finished the Goblin today not with out a little bit of trouble that fortunately turned out even better. I had spent some time cleaning up the little hydraulic ram levers that operated the hook, and was installing one when it flew from the tweezers never to be seen again.. I looked through the spars box and found a PE fret which had 2 parts that were even better than the kit supplied parts.
Well here it is:
