the cabin with the added passenger section (and a new pilot)

very little can be seen from "my" cabin in the finished plane

surface detail is very nice, but still more filing and filling to do

OKish, but still some work to do. I have to open the cabin window to have pilot guy waving out of the window

Decals (my Chinese colleague transcribed them to me so that I could print them out on transparent decal paper)
9
May 21, 2016
decals applied (50%), a bit of silvering...
10
May 21, 2016
...but generally I am happy...
11
May 21, 2016
...also with the close fit...

That last layer of gloss varnish was definitely a mistake...
13
May 22, 2016
...as suddenly the decals clearly stick out again...
14
May 22, 2016
...while before they looked fine (and still do at the underside) but not now 🙁

The ladders are from Brendan sets...
16
May 26, 2016
...one supposedly for the passengers to exit...
17
May 26, 2016
...one for the mechanic to work on the engine (I have yet to convince my decals to cooperate...)

the carriage and the fountain look a bit more realistic now...
20
May 27, 2016
...and, no, the horse is not floating in the air, it'S an illusion caused by the glass plate in the frame...

The diorama is basically flat with no elevation whatsoever...
24
June 17, 2016
...but I guess most airfields will be like that 🙂
25
July 3, 2016
I've been busy for a while but finally I was able to continue...
26
July 3, 2016
...adding some figures, the refueling cart, the dog (well, that's from NOCH)...
27
July 3, 2016
...barrels (what could be in the one labelled "XXX"? 🙂...
28
July 3, 2016
...I like my figures in 1:72 better than my 1:35 (which I never get right)...
29
July 3, 2016
...only the Chinese pilots and a photographer are missing now, before I call it quits.

Nice! 👍
What do You think about this kit? Build the military version and it was much work.

I think the kit is OK (being the only one for this aircraft widely available right now - if I am not mistaken), but let's say that I could have easily spent more time on puttying (is that a word?), filing, making new stuff...

Ok! 🙂 Wir können ja auch auf Deutsch komunizieren. 🙂 Man muß halt viel spachten, meine ich. Ist halt short run. Ich mag diese Dinger aber.
