My first WNW build: Sopwith Triplane

[Epeeman]

Sorry, Bud -

I've missed your recent work here - excellent work as ever and I'm really interested in this elastic rigging thread you are using.   Is this material available in larger diameter for 1/32 scale?  Also, who are the supplier?

Look forward to seeing this one completed.

Regards

Dave

The tripe is lookin great!

I am a big fan of the Modelkasten rigging stuff as well - I am using the "1/48" size (.13mm) for 1/32nd and I think it looks fine....

Thanks a lot, Petrov and Michael!  This project has finally come to an end.  The little one is done!

More pics in that place where all finished models go.  Thanks for tagging along, guys and gal!

Very nice Triplane's - really nice work, Bud

[Michael Scarborough]

Very impressive, Bud-san! Your ability to work successfully in two scales simultaneously only proves how flexible you are!

Looking forward to many more in 2015!

Thanks, my dear friend!  This is about as far as my flexibility goes.  No 1/72 scale or 1/28 scale projects forthcoming.  Might try my hand at figure painting if I can get you to show me what's up.
Cheers,

Hi Bud,

Sorry my friend very late, but my appreciation for your accomplishment is very high. You did a terrific job and you showed once again where you are capable of! Many congratulations!

Kind regards
Patrick

[NinetythirdLiberator]

Agreed...wow, Bud.  Those are some seriously sweet finishes.

Excellent.  So which WNW will you try next? 

Cheers,

Dan

[coyotemagic]

Martin, Patrick and Dan, thank you for your generous comments.  They greatly appreciated.  Not sure which WNW kit I'll do next, Dan.  I was thinking of doing a Roland D.VI dual build with the Blue Max kit, but there's been a virtual explosion of Roland builds, so I may hold off on that one for a bit.  Might do a Snipe dual build.  Or maybe a W.12 dual build.  Or...
Cheers,
Bud
