Is this not "papermodelers.com"? your build is deceiving... tricking people into thinking it's metal and not paper. Your should be ashamed of how well your building this kit.

Next step was the back section of the plain, vertical stabilizer and rudder. I had decided to separate the rudder from vertical stabilizer and make it movable, as well as modified the back of the shooter section since I wasn't happy with what the kit offer.

Hi Olo, very courageous of you to bite your teeth in this kit! I must say some 6 years ago I started this model as well and similar to your approach, I added a lot of details to the very basically designed interior. However, somehow the project stalled and that was the end of it. I will follow your build with great interest.

This model was also recently built by one of the other members of this forum, Styrian Spitfire. You may check out his thread for tips and tricks.

Cheers,
Erik

Hello Erik, Thanks for nice words and I hope you will be back to your project sooner or later This plane I am building for my friend who is struggling in his life and this is his favorite aircraft. I hope I will finish it Thanks for the link I will go over for sure. I am kind of new in the hobby and I am eager to learn tips and tricks to make another model better ....
Cheers, Olo
