LSP_Ron Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 My hat is off to you, I've built that engine four times now and none of them could touch a stick to that. Very, very well done. Ron Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EvanAugust Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 You know, all you guys with your fancy Wing Nut Wings kits are really tempting me to build one of them there biplanes...if not for all the Luftwaffe, armor, and Gundam kits I have in my stash.

I got my SW Gloster Gladiator from watching your build so I had to get one . That`s another cool project I`d like to start! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miamiangler Posted January 23, 2013 Author Share Posted January 23, 2013 (edited) Today`s Update, I started work on the interior. The seat went together with no problems .I was going to leave the back fabric natural linen , but liked to add some color .The seat was painted with oils to make it look like wood. The control stick was mounted to it`s base . The wood color was from AirModel Vallejo and used on the handle. The ammo box and fuel tank are painted with a mix of Tamyia and Vallejo paints . This is my first try on doing a 1/32nd prop in wood . The 1/48th props are a lot easier to do . I used a base color of aged white then a mix of burnt sienna and raw umber artist oils. Then masked of the sections and sprayed off white and flesh as a base color . When dry I used burnt sienna artist oil.I still have to add the gloss coats and do the prop hub, Thanks, Willi Edited January 23, 2013 by miamiangler Fixed image links Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LSP_Kevin Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 Terrific work Willi! Great job on the prop. I fixed up your image links for you. Kev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolf Buddee Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 Looking good Willi. Working on the same stuff right now. Isn't painting the cord that secures the fabric behind the seat to the framework fun. Fiddly stuff for sure. Also waiting for the rocker arm, valve springs, and manifold lock nuts from Taurus after seeing how nice they looked on your engine. Thanks for the inspiration Willi!
