Indeed this is some of the finest interior scratch build I have seen so far! So happy to see these pictures before closing the fuselage. You are doing a fantastic build here, matey! :bow:

Getting rather large now with the wings on! I like how the first layer of paint visually unites the surface and appearance!

Ah! The enormous Junkers Ju 290 from Revell! A beautiful kit! Sadly mine didn“t survive a move some years ago...
This aircraft has a larger span in 1/72 scale than a 1/48 scale Boeing B-17!!!
