WnW Bristol F.2b
« on: December 28, 2017, 01:03:20 PM »
Hello all,

  Well I managed to get a start on the Bristol. I made some of my own eyelets and then started to add more frame work and some internal rigging. I know you will probably not be able to see much of it. But hey...I know its in there!!

Looks great!  I'm planning on trying to do internal rigging for my next model.  When you drilled the holes for the crossbraces along the sides, did you drill the holes through and through from the outside, of find someway to drill them partially through from the inner edge where the loop is?

thanks!

Hi Dave,

  I drilled the hole into the framing before I glued them into the fuselage. I had made marks for where the eyelets go.

Outstanding work! May not be seen but you have certainly added even more detail to a kit that is already great!

I still class this as the best kit Wingnuts have ever produced and what you have done so far has made it even better. I built this kit when it was first released and thoroughly enjoyed the build, the rigging may seem complex but if you take your time you will handle it without a problem.

Here is a link to my build just in case you need a bit of help along the way but judging from what you have done so far you will not need any help;  https://ww1aircraftmodels.com/page7.html

A really cool looking interior with all that interior rigging. The wooden tones came out very nicely as well. This is an interesting build to follow!
