KRIEG ADLER PROJECT "LET THE PROJECT BEGIN"
With the installation of the front strut I was able to close up the cockpit and work on the canopy layout. The canopy will lift forward supported by gas struts that I fabricated out of aluminum tube and copper wire. Here is how things look right now.

The newly manufactured gas struts.
Slide rails on the canopy frame.
The struts installed for the moment.

KRIEG ADLER PROJECT "THE OFFICE IS CLOSED"
While the future is curing on the canopies I moved on to the wing/fuselage. The parts have decent detail on the outside, the inside is completly open. The area that appears to be air intakes is completly open and you can see the whole interior. So I'm working on closeing that up and adding details. More on that later. I have added more detail painting of the cockpit and a olive green wash to the seat as well a black wash to the rest of the interior. You will also notice that I have green tinted the upper glass of the rear canopy.
