I do wonder if the photo that shows the partially painted insignia was literally a WIP, maybe they finished the job before she flew again? If I get this to a base I think it would be neat to stage a couple of paint cans around.
you build as large workshop, a huge bench, loads of storage and every thing ends up on a 2ft cutting mat

Its looking super cool. I like the idea of of the paint cans

The engineering on this kit is outstanding. Notice this is just hanging on the cabane struts, the outer struts are not in position yet.

On Der Baron's airplane? Someone will be transferring to the Infantry.
Yep, the way I read it those paint jobs were changing constantly. 127/17 was the one that ended up in the Museum in Berlin, photos of it there show the incomplete paint job. It was destroyed during bombing in WW2.
Yeah you're not going to do that with all these kits.
The rigging on the cabane struts go into the struts themselves not the wing so I'm going to do that. I need to get decals on the top wing and rig the ailerons, it's time to put a flat coat on this to knock down the shine.

That's because you haven't glued it yet. Gary S.
Top wing ready for a pin wash and a flat coat.
I got smart and started rigging the control horns before installing.
Also Paddy inspired me to create my own anchor with 24 gauge wire loop and drilled thru the pre punch hole for the rigging. Yeah, don't worry about the machine guns...there are barrels to be installed.
One thing I have notice, some modelers have turn buckles on all the control horns, that's not what you see when you look at period photos or even drawings. Only exposed turnbuckles I see are on the cabane and landing struts.

The turnbuckles on control cables are located elsewhere, like on the control yokes or mid cable inside the fuselage.
