Recently completed in 1:72 scale:
1 Airfix Sopwith Pup - extensive improvements including: rear fuselage opened up, cowling openings thinned, scratched interior and reprofiled forward cockpit sides, Aeroclub Vickers with homemade "windshield", Aeroclub wheels with brass rod axles, new tailskid and rudder, extensively thinned wings to remove the "starving cow" ribs, separated control surfaces and wire-pinned fin/rudder, PART PE control horns, Microscale decals and homemade "lift here" stencils. Unfortunately I noticed the skewed serial number too late.... :-[
1 Encore (Roden) Sopwith Camel - pretty much "straight out of the bag" with PART PE control horns - what a difference between these 2 basic kits!
