Here's William Barker's Sopwith Snipe - Eastern Express 1/72.

Only my second attempt with an airbrush - but no tricky patterns!

Awesome build Will! Your airbrushed finish looks great as does the rigging!

1/72? Liar!

That's a stunning Snipe Will! I honestly thought it was 1/48 or bigger.

Great looking Snipe. How difficult was this build for you? Any issues?

The kit went together pretty easily - no major issues at all. The Eastern Express kits are actually pretty good (and cheap!).

Another stunner in the True Scale. These models really are first class in every respect.

You sure you haven't invented the incredible shrinking machine?

Super build.

Lovely job! I have a soft spot for the Snipe and have this kit in the stash. Any tips for building it?

Cheers,
