Bristol Scout n°1259 Imbros May 1916, CSM 1/32
« on: December 31, 2023, 08:48:18 PM »
Hi everybody it is my turn to present my Bristol Scout.
I did the n°1259 wich was in Imbros inMay 1916 among the n°1264 I previusly realased at 1/48..



Both planes were flown by sub Lieutenant Bremner in Imbros (Greece) in may of 1916.

Here are some pictures:







I used Aviattic linen decals, they are tip top:


Concerniong  the structure representation, I used Xtradecas stripes, as did Mike , wich was my inspiration. I want to thank him here to allowed me to use his idea.

Lovely work. I like the way you showed the discolouration of the fabric without airbrushing "zebra stripes" either side of the rib tapes. What you've done is much more effective IMO and the overall weathering is really good. A great build of a great kit. well done!

Xan,
    Stunning, what great work and a real pleasure to view. You've mastered the clear doped linen effect beautifully!
Cheers,

Wonderful Work!  Those RNAS planes in the Dardanelles really took a beating and your weathering looks spot on!

That is a mini-masterpiece of a very interesting type. Superb realistic finish.
