Hello from Toronto, Sopwith Triplane Britmodeller referral

[marvinneko]

I was referred here from Britmodeller as I am dipping my toe into WW1 era with a Sopwith Triplane.

My wife was taken with a Black Maria replica displayed in our national museum. I'd like to make "Black Sheep" from the black flight as I feel like she and I are both the black sheep of our respective families.

I acquired an Eduard 1/48 set of sprues sans box, instructions, decals, and photoetch. I got instructions from scalemates and I am familiar with painting markings. Photoetch... I've seen the Tom's modelworks 211 set. I may scratchbuild stuff.

I have the Profile and Windsock publications for the triplane.

I look forward to digging into the material here.
