Title: Sopwith Triplane Wingnut Wings
Post by: gruson on January 06, 2015, 09:58:04 PM

Hello,
There is some time that I realized. I present to you some pictures

The triplane seems a fragile aircraft, compared to the German aircraft.

Gorgeous Michel!  That first shot is so realistic and well-composed it looks like the line at an aerodrome!  The finish and weathering are outstanding. ;D

Cheers & huzzas,

Bob

Really beautiful job Michel, as Bob has said, that first photo really fools one, could be the real thing! I like this a lot, it's excellent work that you can be very proud of. :)
Cheers,
Lance

She's absolutely stunning, Michel!  I used your Tripe photos on the WNW website as inspiration when I built mine.
Cheers,
Bud

I saw it some time ago at the WNW website. One of the best Tripe models I ever saw. And I agree, the first photo does show the real thing! Congratulations!

A very stunning build Michel, the weathering is superb and the rigging is extremely well done, this is one of the best Tripes I have seen.

Yours is the best build of a Sopwith Triplane I have seen. Very realistic without being over done. Thank you for posting those beautiful photos.
