Sopwith 1&1/2 Strutter. 1/72 Toko

This one is pretty much straight OOB. Only additions I remember are the Edward Nieuport gun ring. Very nice little kit.













Thanks for looking in!

Nice to see a French strutter.  I always liked this one from the time I saw it on the cover of a datafile.

Beautiful work, Tim. I love the wing rib effects and the complex rigging.

Love your work Tim, I still look at your earlier creations especially the vacs. Is the Toko the same as the Flashback strutter ???

No.  The Toko kit doesn’t have any resin or photo etch details. Nor does it have the bomber variant options. It’s still a very nice kit though.

Lol.  No sir.   I’m new to this site so these are mostly older builds I am sharing.  Anything current is being posted on the under construction post first.  Thanks

Wrong scale Torbiorn  :D
Here is the Toko bomber variant, now produced by Eastern Express.

I know - that one was among the top results when I posted the link. Seems like someone just bought the last copy!
