Wingnut Sopwith Pup
« on: April 16, 2023, 05:22:38 AM »
Hi all,

Just finished off the Pup, vice-less as usual  :)

I’ve got 4 kits to build for someone, so my Wingnuts resurgence will have to go on the back seat for a month or so I reckon  :P

Great fun though.


Thanks


Guy


Ps I used a Proper Plane prop for the first time, it’s lovely!

It's not just the prop that is lovely - the whole model is! Super finish and rigging.

 Ah thanks Stephen,

That’s very kind of you. I sent a picture to Alexey at Proper Plane and he told me ‘Nice, but the props on back to front’!  :o

About par for the course…

Well done, Guy! One WNW down, four more to make ace and after that you've only got some 25 more... :D

Well done indeed, Guy. Well built and beautifully photographed. Interesting note about the propeller being front-to-back. Hard to spot that, actually.
Cheers,
Gary

Stunning build, Guy! You have brought out the great details in the WNW kit and made it even better! I do like your colour interpretations, very enjoyable to view! Regards, Marc.
