    Beautiful work done on those various parts, Reinhard @grimreaper
    What did you use to fill up that sink mark.

    Good progress, Reinhard @grimreaper
    That's quite some putty needed.

    sprayed on some primer to see where still work is necessary
    as you may see, the wings to fuselage alignement is a bit "windswept" looking at it from above or below, but maybe the fuselage isn´t completely symetric either...

    Good progress, my friend @grimreaper! Who knows why the wings come out with a slght sweep.

    and the next project ended and trashed ☹️😄

    my dad did cut off one wing and glued it on again to make the fuselage to wings alignement better, also he glued on the three landing gear struts on one side

    when I wanted to take some WIP pics, I pushed it to the ground accidentally and the landing gear parts broke, unrepairable...

    no good day for models today 😄

    A pity to hear this, Reinhard @grimreaper
    Must be broken very badly because with your dad's skills nearly everything is repairable.

    These things happen, my friend @grimreaper. No worries, walk onto the next project.
