Euhm, that picture of skis and rigging that Bruce posted, is not mine, unfortunately!

Kari, I’m not sure which aircraft Gary chose to model, but the color scheme seems slightly off which is why I just highlighted the ski mechanism. Gary’s known for details; I think that’s where he excels.

I’ve seen quite a few splinter camo versions, curiously. I have not researched too much so far.

Nice work on your test.
Make more models!

Thanks Bruce, he certainly excels, the build quality is outstanding, details from another planet, really amazing!

Most of the time so far, that I have spent with this project, has been to research more information about the 1.D.357.

However, I started with the cockpit, or more precisely the cockpit wooden floor, the control stick, the compass etc.

The compass is a colored PE part, the glass is a drop of UV resin

Work with the seat cushion started as well

Finally becoming this:

The kit comes with very nice PE harness, so that will be the next step.

Very nice work Kari! The wood grain on the floor is fantastic! How did you do that?
