Hi guys,

This was a bit of a restoration project on behalf of a fellow member. Build thread here if you'd like to read more.

Great looking plane indeed Bob, love the paintjob and weathering, not too clean or dirty.

A great restoration worth the wait for that paint.

Err, thanks??

 

[Jakko]

Err, thanks??

I meant it as a compliment: after you had begun to strip the plane, it didn’t exactly give the appearance of ever looking good again.

 

[Mr Bowcat]

Oh, ok. Cheers.

That turned out realy great. The problems it threw at you, you chewed them up and spat them right back at it.
The photos are good to. Light painting?

 

[Mr Bowcat]

Cheers Ian.

Not sure what light painting is? But I took them with my DSLR (usually use my phone) on a tripod, and played around with my bench lights and the camera settings.
