Thanks Spiros my friend, engine cylinders done, a bit of trimming and painting also.

Engine in place and a bit of touch up paint on.
The engine looks nice installed, also the paint "filler" is such a great idea, my friend @kalamazoo!
Thanks Spiros my friend, won't see much of it when finished, I like paint for minor filling, ----------------- engine cover, horizontal and vertical stabilizers on.

All looking great and homogeneous, my friend @kalamazoo!
Thanks Spiros my friend, I replaced the float cross braces with brass strip for strength and more holes drilled for wires !
I recall one of these airplanes being used in place of the Fairey Seafox as the spotter plane launched by HMS Ajax in the movie "Battle of the River Plate," the story of the battle with the Graf Spee. (BTW - for those interested you can find the entire movie over at YouTube - real all-gun warships fighting on film the way they did, and Achilles herself is in the film)
Nice improvements, my friend @kalamazoo! Thanks for the movie info, my friend @tcinla!
Thanks Tom, pretending to be a Seafox ? ----------- Thanks Spiros, ------------
A coat of grey on, needs some cleaning up before some silver !
Some touching up done and a coat of silver.
Priming and silver coat look great, my friend @kalamazoo!
Thanks Spiros my friend, ---------- The tail, handle, painted silver, now for some assembly.
Top wing on, struts in place, rigging going in through all those little holes !
