Hi all,
Windscreen assembly, Vickers extended cocking handle and the Lewis gun trigger cable added (0.2 mm diameter lead wire from 'Plus Model').
So just the figures to assemble and paint now.
Then wait for the display case and propeller to arrive (UK postal strikes permitting of course).

Hi all,
The pilot and mechanic figures are finished now.
Apart from waiting the arrival of the display case and propeller, this build is finished.
I'll post the completed build eventually (postal strikes permitting).

Once again, thanks for your comments and support.
Now it's onto the Fokker E.IV build.

Take care and have yourselves a great Christmas,

Mike

Those pilots look great and seem to relax for Christmas already, Mike @sandbagger
It was a pleasure to follow this thread with some great detailing work shown.
Looking forward to see it on the headlines once the propellor has arrived.
Merry Christmas

Really nice, inspirational work on this @sandbagger. I have the kit, and with luck (no predicitions), 2023 will see my take on it realized. Thanks much!

Absolutely amazing, Mike @sandbagger
Together with this little diorama it is a winner and the pilot seems to know that.
