Title: WNW Triplane
Post by: RAGIII on July 07, 2013, 01:51:31 AM
Here are some pictures of my completed Triplane build. An enjoyable kit with only a couple of fit issues, namely the cockpit floor and cockpit coaming. Both were relatively easy to correct. Thanks for all of the encouragement during my build!

It's been a treat following along as she came together Rick. You should be proud of how she turned out. Well done!

Very , very nice, Rick. Now I know how my next model should look like! I will especially use yours as a pattern for the chocolate brown PC10 I am going to mix. Thanks for sharing these fine photos.

Excellent build. I especially like the finish on the propellor and your interpretation of PC 10 is very interesting. An all round great success - very convincing as with the correct background it would be impossible to tell that it is a model.

Hello, RAGIII

Another superb job, mate - very much like the look of this one.  Looks as though you used EZ line for the rigging?

Regards

Hello Rick:

I like the way this turned out.  The color "seems" to be spot on.  I remember reading in another forum pages of discussion on PC 10 & 12.  If it looks right, it is.  It looks right to me.  Very nicely done.

Best

Mark,
Thanks for your comment here, and also your support throughout the build! As for the Color, it is what I was aiming for more or less. A CHOCOLATE finish! This indeed goes back to all of those OLD DROME threads  :-X
