The mottle is sort of fogged onto the sides and tail. After some touch up comes the painted markings and decals.

Green has beeb mottled on the sides of the fuselage. One thing I especially like about Luftwaffe camouflage is that it hides a multitude of building sins, and I'm now Poppy or

Now I have the wing tip up the right amount, The plans show a but joint at the wing break, but I added a lap joint in the spar and some gussets at the leading and trailing edges for reinforcement. The inboard rib is angled in, 1/8 inch according to the plans to get the downward angle of the inner wing panels, I traced the angle of the front view drawing and made a guage,

The plans say to prop up the wing tip 1-1/2 inches to get the gull wing effect. Glad that I checked before I took it of the board, Whoever drew it measured up from level in the front view, It is, indeed, 1-1/2 inches from level, but to get that dihedral from board level you have to prop up the wing tip to 3-3/4 inches.

Easy Built wood is light, in some areas too light. The 1/16 inch square stock was too fragile for the wing spars so I used some Guillow's wood for the spar.

Dealing with Easybuilt kits. The wings just glue onto the side of the fuselage so I added som more gluing surface. I am also moving the rear peg forward one bay to get balancing with less ballast. More than makes up for the shorter motor.

Busy building board. The Heinkel is for a contest in May, the Blacksheep Squadron "Easybuilt, Beat Your Span" contest. The timing doesn't start until your model has flown the number of seconds equal to it's wingspan in inches.

And I flew it with great fun...till I gave it away to a friend of mine, a year ago.
