Hi all, here are the completed photos of my Wurger bird.

First mottling in years and after suffering some major mojo loss the build was halted some months…:rolling:
Not perfect at all, fuselage band masking was a bit off and some filler shows on the cowing, but still a good three footer and I love how the colours have come together.:smiling4:
Thanks to Richard F. and Alan G. in helping with some final details on the GB’s end.:thumb2:

Hi Fernando,
That’s looking very nice indeed, I like how you can look into the cockpit :thumb2:

What do you use to make the arial wire with?

Thanks for the kind comments guys, much appreciated. :thumb2: :thumb2:

Si, I used Ammo (re-packed Ushi van der Rosten )0.1mm wire, the horizontal one was a normal CA and tension in place action, the vertical one was glued with PVA to the other one with just enough tension to keep it straight and not enough to have the other one sagging.
