"I have gone ahead and made my usual modifications to make "butt" joints ."
from the ministry of rivet counting and the terminology police.... these are strip and joiner pieces. pure butt joints are edge to edge, they butt up together, bulkhead to bulkhead is where each end has a bulkhead and they mate up together.
"we are watching you"
seriously looks like a great undertaking. will be interested in the bristle brush rigging. I haven't found a brush so far that will give in scale looking rigging, yet.

Rolling right along. Thanks again to Gene K. who turned me on to Durwent watercolor pencils.

It looks very good, although I'm so tired that my vision gets cloudy. You took a nice kit.

Wings with styrofoam reinforcement.

You seem to have easily mastered what is probably the most difficult and make-or-break phase of the build big fella. Roman clearly knows his stuff!

Great job there Michael, very good yellow wings!

That's a nice looking plane, I plan on building that when Chris get his site back up.

Where did you find skinny Styrofoam like that?Hobby shop of some kind?I use cardboard from cereal boxes -styrofoam is way lighter ergo better for some things.
