Great work and a beautiful result Andy. Getting that silver doped look can be a real challenge, much more difficult than a NMF.
I've been looking around for some time for those 'Strutz' packs, in the various sizes, but I believe the company is no more.
Not a major problem, as I only needed some for one set of interplane struts, so I'll make some from scratch. There used to be another UK company making a similar product, but I'm blowed if I can remember who!

Thanks Terry, If you ever run across more let me know.

Turned out beautiful Andy! Well worth all the effort you put into it!

Thanks for the comments guys. It looks presentable from one side. Fortunately it will only be seen from that side and not judged on it's own for a contest. This whole display is my contest entry for this month at the local club. Need to get the glass on the front before next Sat. so they can't look too close at the HL-1 or the Cub. Each of those only have one good side.

Finished her up today.

Pics of the full display tomorrow, after I fasten the last two down to the base.

Beauty! Great job Andy. It has a slight look of the Hawker Demon or Fury about it.

Shape of the nose and rudder does have a similar look.
