Title: Sopwith Camel (Barker`s) Eduard 1/48
Post by: xmald on July 27, 2015, 07:49:48 AM: Hello!
I`ve finished her ;) The Vickers guns are Part`s the rest is out of the box plus some minor scratch building. The prop is carved.
I really enjoyed this one though due to lack of time it took quite a long...

I've built the same model in exactly the same markings in the past!

Yours is a truly excellent result - fantastic Camel.

Dave

Post by: coyotemagic on July 27, 2015, 01:15:13 PM: She's truly stunning, Filip! This is my favorite rendition of Barker's Camel and you've done a spectacular job. Must do a Camel build in the very near future.
Cheers,
Bud

Post by: boggie on July 27, 2015, 07:58:08 PM: Outstanding Filip. :)
As Bud said, my favorite Camel markings too and one I will do on Wingnut's kit (hopefully soon :) )
Yours is a great standard to attempt to emulate, thank you. :)

Post by: RAGIII on July 27, 2015, 11:19:47 PM: A terrific example of the Camel! Excellent work all around from construction to finish. The figures posed with the Camel are outstanding examples of what can be accomplished in 1/48th.

Post by: lone modeller on July 28, 2015, 02:44:18 AM: Wonderful model, especially the propellor which can be difficult to get to look right. The b&w photos make it look very authentic. Well up to the usual very high standard that comes off your bench.

Post by: ermeio on July 29, 2015, 03:06:11 AM: Great Camel in attractive markings
The Eduard model is the most realistic on the market
And you added realism with your talent

Post by: andonio64 on August 03, 2015, 01:05:59 AM: Fantastic build Filip, the WIP for this wonder stopped at an early stage so it was not showed hod did you actually make the red devil on the MG.
I ask because this is the schema I will make for the same kit and actually can't imagine how to make it. :o

Congratulations for the astonishing result!

Antonio

Post by: xmald on August 14, 2015, 06:13:11 AM: Cheers! !:)) Andonio the devil is from the PE set and was included in the model. Should you want to build this Camel I van ony recommend buying Eduard's kit or trying to cut IT out of paper soaked in CA glue...
Title: Re: Sopwith Camel (Barker`s) Eduard 1/48
Post by: andonio64 on August 14, 2015, 11:14:02 PM: Thanks Filip, I have exactly the same kit (Eduard 8056)
(http://www.eduard.com/store/out/media/gallery/502/zoom/00.jpg)

And I had not noticed therewas also the little devil in the PE fret!

WOW!

That's a great news, I want to make the Barker's Camel because he took part (well he fired it) to the battle of Istrana (same where the 76th Squadriglia participated with the 2 Hanriots I am currently working on)

Ciao

Post by: pietro on August 15, 2015, 04:58:45 AM: Filip, what a great model! At first glance, I thought it was 1/28, not 1/48. The B&W photos are especially nice and you've captured the correct stance of the landing gear.
