Wingnut Wings 1/32nd DH.9a Ninak
By Benjamin Jessen

Here is my finished model of the Wingnut Wings DH.9a Ninak.
This is the first 2-seat biplane I have built.
I went with the boxart version. This required me to change a few things I haven't tried before - like moving the stitching and using the PE version and making the cutout for the observer. The cutout is called a "storage locker" in the instructions, so maybe it is just easier access for the observer.

I mixed AK Extreme Matte Aluminum with AK Realcolor Medium Grey in a 2 to 1 ratio to get the doped aluminum color.

Apart from a few mistakes, I am very happy with it.
For more on the model, check out my build thread in the Work in Progress forum. Thank you all for the motivation along the way!
