Interesting build on FG

I've been following a long build thread over on Flying Giants. This guys building a 50% scale Pitts Python, not so unusual in itself, the unusual bit is he's scaled it by projecting images of the full size onto a wall in his house and working from them. He's also using a combination of unusual materials ie hardwood aluminium and building foam and wherever possible totally replicating the full size. It's a long thread but here's a couple of photos just to give you the gist of it. First one shows his projection method with him stood in front to give scale


Second photo shows the model fuselage and tail feathers to date

Here's a full size in the bones


And here's his model fus on an office chair to give scale

Karl's pressed on with this a bit here's a couple of pics, this last week he's spent most of his time vacuum bagging his own two piece cowl the bottom half not out of the bag yet
