WAK 1:33 PZL.38 Wilk

Holy hell, it's been a while since I posted here...
I've brought this model a few weeks back and to be honest, I was rather unprepared for its difficulty as it was the first time I've bought a product from the publisher. (the shipping time was atrocious !!!)
After these weeks have passed with some much-needed prior preparation and slow progress on the pilot's seat, I've finally mustered up the courage to have begun the work on the wing frames yesterday!
The entire process so far has been somewhat tedious, I've tried my best to get every cut right with my No.16 knife, but for some reason it felt like knapping a stone arrowhead without much experience.
I apologise in advance for not documenting the aforementioned parts earlier.

Anyway here's the results for today! If I have any time I'll be posting updates as frequently as possible.

No need to apologize in the slightest, you don't owe anybody anything. Anything you share is a boon to the community!

Looks like a neat shape already. Should be quite a challenge indeed. Quite the obscure beast!

Thanks for the kind words, Reynolds!

Here's some more progress pictures on the project, taken over the course of the past few days. Since I was extremely lazy when it came to painting the opposite sides of the frames, I just went for a mix of 50% XF-83 and 50% white paint. Not sure how the wingtips turned out but I'm confident that I did a decent job on them (the more pedantic details on them will be saved for later )

Good start! I look forward to watching this one take shape.

The Wilk was a good-looking airplane. To my eye, it looked a little like a slimmed-down Bréguet 693.

Thanks, Don!

Some more progress pictures.
Assembling the bomb was arguably the easiest part for me, but the parts for the outer skin of the fuselage were somewhat hard to align...
I've begun work on the tail earlier today, hopefully by tomorrow or in the following days it would be complete.
