1/32 WNW Bristol Fighter

This build was inspired by the wonderful book of Jose Martinez Fernandez. But being an Aussie had to take on an Australian build.

Magnificent Biff. That is some great modeling.

There is something fundamentally amiss with a society which forces it's modelers to work for a living.

Wow! Where to start? That is a most amazing Bristol Fighter you've built and from the looks of it you only used about 35% of the kit. Bravo!

Thanks for the kind comments. I used most of the kit in fact. Only a couple of the wings omitted, plus an aileron and elevator. both fuselage halves were used but cut away at the cockpit sides and behind the cockpit. All the rest was either kit or scratch built. The WNW kit is a great place to start with this build.
