Hello!

At the beginning traditional I start from designing of the fuselage.

Best regards.

Hello!
Don: I didn`t know. I am glad that I came to your style. Hm... telepathy?
flying rasta: Thank you! When I was prepare to design I found this painting and emblem of this squadron.
I want to do a model in this painting: "Dieppe raid", August 1942. I hope you'll like it.

In the model I added vertical and horizontal rudders.

Best regards.
Krzychu74

P.S.:So the report was not too boring I thought to myself that I would submit to you the song, which I listen to while designing. May I? Yes, yes, please, please! :D
Ok, because I'm doing a British aircraft, on the beginning of British song: Lucretia. I hope you will like it. Happy listening.
