Eduards Sopwith triplane 1/48
« on: July 01, 2014, 09:06:41 AM »
Another one of my favorites . Some detailing was done in the pit such as the floor , bracing wires added , rear former behind the pilot and controls line of the rudder bar and stick . The turtle deck was skinned with embossed plastic card 0.05 thickness with it being flared up at the tail . The tail area was cut away and this area was scratched built . The landing gear is also heavily modified .

Ah! It's so nice to see one of my favourite aircraft. Thanks Terri and very nice too. I've got one of the Eduard models ticking along about half done somewhere. I must search it out and see what catastrophe caused the  delay.

Best wishes

This is one of my favorites of yours, T!  So glad you posted her.  She's ravishing.  Bell of the ball and all that.  You inspired me to start the one I'm on now, although belatedly. ;)
Cheers,
Bud

Terri,
    One of my favorite subjects, and definitely my favorite scheme for her. Very nice, you brought out the very best in a less then perfect Kit!
Cheers,

Sounds like a rebuild rather than a straight build there. Whatever, you have done a first class job on it. Another wonderful model.
