I've uploaded new pictures.
The construction of the cockpit is very good with the etched parts.

Holger der Bausatz ist schon sehr gut aber auch die Ätzteile lassen sich gut verarbeiten, deshalb komme ich gut vor ran.
I've uploaded new pictures, to the building report can have a look at Scaleworld.

Tach Markus, jetzt hatte ich mal die Ruhe um mir Dein Video auch mal mit Ton anzusehen! Waren die PE`s im Bausatz enthalten? Mit interesse habe ich gesehen das Du eine Form für rundes PE-biegen hast, geniale Anschaffung, werde ich auch tätigen! Ist die Vorrichtung gekauft oder selbstgeklöppelt?
Super mach weiter!

Hello,

the last parts for the cockpit were installed.
Inside, the fabric cover was painted red.
With Allclad colors I painted the colors of the metal radial engine and the covers.
Clear on the two parts in the interior I've attached Edurad masking tape.
The two fuselage halves were glued together and fixed with Tamiya tape.
After two days I'm glued to the last parts of the body.
Then the indicated Platik rivets were removed at the trunk.
Now I bring to gradually etched out the rivets.

Hello,

the last etched parts were installed. The primer was applied.
As for the camouflage pattern was transferred in pencil on the component.
Now I have applied the first color with the air gun, then the next thing I've covered the gray areas.
Next, I then applied the color green.
That's all you can in my building report at scaleworld or the Board to read.

Hello,

here I present you the completely-built Swordfish from Trumpeter.
The building with the Eduard parts gave me a lot of fun and went really well out of hand.
The machine was built on the so-called MAC-ships (Merchant aircraft carrier) used in the Atlantic and Artik s convoy, she was flown for example. Sub Lieutenant (A) Stanley T Brand RNVR.

Hi,

thank you 🙂.

@Holger😉, danke für die Worte 🙂, hätte sie König nicht letztes Jahr zum Schnäpchen Preis angeboten hätte ich sie mir nicht geholt.
Da ich aber Trägerflugzeuge mag und die Swordfish als Doppeldecker mit ihren eingklappten Tragflächen sau gut aus sieht, war es noch ein Grund sie mir zu holen.
Auch die Ätzteile haben sehr gut gepasst und werten den schon sehr guten Nausatz noch mehr auf 🙂.

Great job, which motivates me to finish my own stringbag.

My problem is with the bracing wires. Did you use the ones provided by Trumeter, which are very stiff? Or did uou use something else?
