Looking forward to the Stearman, got one in the stash, just need to get confident enough to tackle the rigging.

Rigging isn't that difficult. In fact, for 1/72 scale, you can just drill straight through the wings and run the rigging lines through. Glue securely, trim off the excess, fill and paint.

Well yea, it sounds simple, but it gets harder when you're old, blind and have very fat fingers...

Rob, Jessie, Good Ideas. How about a simple grean and brown cammo over yellow as used by the RAF during WW2?

Jessie,
Yes something like that, either no blue or a sky blue band on top rather than the smaller blue bits. What do you think?

I thought that the blue bits would be the cutouts for the cockpits...
