Many thanks, everybody for your overly kind comments on my BE2c model.

Marc, you flatter me far too much. This fails in many aspects to be taken as a WNW kit. And you also know well, there are modellers around, who do much much more in this scale. You have seen it in the flesh back in February.

Catching up Przemo.  The BE.2 is an absolute jewel, and it is even
more amazing to remember it is in the teeny scale.  Brilliant job, my friend!

Cheers,
Ernie :)

I`ve been lucky enough to see this model with my own eyes and I can assure you it`s a true gem. Przemo is on of the best WWI modellers I know but when it comes to 1/72 he`s the master. Congratulations your award in Poznań and good luck in Szczecin! ;)
 
Best regards

Thank you, Ernie and Filip.
But, Filip, one correction - BE.2c did not get anything in Poznań competition. Surprisingly it was Bristol F.2B Fighter that the judges liked more. So, to avoid such a funny situation, I am not taking both models to Szczecin, only BE.2c is going, Fighter is staying home. :)

And I was so sure... The F.2B is superb but the BE.2C is a piece of art IMHO. Good luck then even more  ;)

Absolutely beautiful work. I'm finding it hard to comprehend it's 1/72.

Glad I caught this one (just catching up on things after a long holiday) - I'm floored at your incredible build. A work of art in any scale, this little gem at 1/72 is one of the nicest I've seen in this scale. Your long months of work on it paid off BIG time.
Cheers,
Gary

A masterpiece!
A model thrives on its overall impression and not on that every little disagreement over the original is hyped up as a disaster
