This is the model which I originally bought only to accompany the fantastic wooden propeller from ProperPlanes (thank you Alex) which I got as a prize in the Des' memory GB. Initially I was not fully convinced to building a seemingly boring Sopwith. Still, while working on it I started to like this model and the aircraft, too. Well, Pup has some appeal, no doubt about it.
So here it is - my vision of A1 from 61 HD Sqn, dated at September 1917.

As noted, she is a real beauty Pryzemo! Very clean and precise build, and a lovely model for display. Very well done.
Best regards,

Well now, if that isn't graphic evidence that I have a whole lot to learn about building models, I don't know what is.
That is an extremely fine build. You took a state of the art kit and improved it on every level. It is a real treat to look at.

What, done already?
This model is once again a proof of your great skills and the quality of the WWN kits. I really like the paint work.
And yes, even a "simple" Pup has some appeal.
Cheers,

She's simply stunning, Przemo! For not being a fan of the Pup initially, you certainly approached this project with your usual TLC. I love the Pup, have 2 1/48 and 2 WNW already built and plan on building 2 more. Great little kite.
Cheers,

Beautifullly done, Przemol. I think the engine, prop, and cowling are the highlights of of this model.

It's a funny thing, I didn't think I would like the Gnome Pup but looking at yours is a real treat the cowl really changes it up it looks nicely different from all the other pups out there.
Well done.
