Scrathbuilt Sopwith Camel

I finally finished my scratchbuilt model.


I call it, "Sopwith Camel Waiting the Arrival of the Famous World War I Flying Ace" ::)

Enjoy the laugh!  ;D

Love it!  But I agree with Bo.  It's more a light mocha than a chocolate.
Cheers,

I struggled with that myself. I thought to myself, "hmmm, what would the World War I Flying Ace do?" So I opted for more of a "dogfood" color.  ;D

Nice job but I think your rib shading is a bit over-stated.  ;D  ;D  ;D

Hello Rizzo:

I have to agree with the others on the forum with this one and have to comment on the cockpit opening, it looks like you forgot the coming or you are waiting for the right material.  :o  Looking forward to the next one.  ;)

Best
