Very nicely detailed gunsight, Spiros @fiveten

Wing tip lights were replaced with clear pieces...

Some oil spilling under the engine and some undersides (incl. tires) dirtying...

Thanks my friend @michaelt! Will give it a try for sure!
In the meantime, here is the final coat applied...

Talk about shock and awe in modeling . . . a biplane no less. Impressive to say the least.

it's looking mighty fine, Spiros @fiveten

Thanks to the heads-up from our friend @michaelt, I added the cross bracing rods...

Some heart felt modeling Spiro's. You have good taste and the Gladiator is so apropos in representing how delicate life is, while being a defender of democracy and freedom. Valeriy's paintings our about ideas, possibilities and inspirations in modeling. I've bought more models as result of good art work. If a company cares enough to pay for some good art on the box top its a indicator of what's in the box.

Now that your done with your Gladiator, I've decided to paint my kit like the Valeriy's painting and will be riding on the shoulders of some of your work. The rigging hole photos will be of great help in building this kit.
