Airfix 1/48 Tiger Moth: ZK-BFH

I added a piece of brass rod for the fuel line. Then it was on to the wing rigging which was a bit of a fiddle, needing a steady hand....   But I got there in the end. Then there was some touching up of paint work and attaching the final few pieces...

Getting there! Painting the prop was quite a process, but I think it's turned out OK if a bit darker than the actual one. The dreaded rigging is next I think.

Almost time for the final assembly. Getting those big wing decals on was a bit nerve-wracking but turned out not to be as much trouble as I expected. Good old Micro-Set and Mr Mark Softer...

Making progress. Some yellow paint and decals at last :-)  

It's been a while, but some progress... Cockpit interior   The main components assembled and some painting started   Currently doing the wing-walks. I used Tamiya putty roughed up with a sponge. It doesn't look too bad and will be better when painted I hope

And welcome back to another edition of Pedant Corner... Some of the pieces on this kit have small marks to indicate where the rigging should attach, but this wasn't done for the cables going to the elevators. To get a decent estimate, I made some measurements off some reference photos and got approximate positions and marked them on some masking tape on the fuselage. Then I got a bit OCD and decided to check... I held up the model (lower wing and tail taped on) to an almost side-on reference photo and took a photo of that. I then took another photo with the model out of the way. Then, in photoshop I loaded those two images as layers and aligned one on top of the other, then tweaked the photo of the model so it lined up a bit better with the reference image. Putting the model photo on top and lowering the opacity, I then marked the actual positions where the cables enter the fuselage. I gave this a couple of tries with two different reference photos and both showed similar results (...
