Scratch building Billy Bishop's SE-5a

Hello all,

Continue working on the upper wing - design done and center section and right sections are done. Put a lot of ribs and trying to do it without a center spar, hope the wing will be stiff enough.

Thoroughly enjoying your progression on this build Mor. Clearly the work of a true creative artist.

That is coming out very nicely. Doing your own skins gives you ultimate control on the model, I find myself repainting or adapting most of the models I build for just that reason. So, if I have mistakes its my own dern fault, lol.

Thanks Rata and Burning Beard. It is going slowly, but I believe in the right direction.

Hello,

The wings are done, but not assembled yet.





And an assembly test of the lower wings.



Before bonding the wings, started to work on the landing gear.
