1/32 Wingnut Wings 2F.1 Ships Camel...
« on: July 01, 2017, 12:02:04 PM »
G'day All,

I'm calling this one as of now done. It's my take on the aircraft "flung" off HMAS Sydney between July - October 1918.

Built OOB and rigged with Ez-Line. It's my third WNW kit.

I experienced a bit of trouble with the decals cracking but other than that, any other dramas were of my own making.

Apologies for the picture quality....one day I'll learn to take better ones....and today isn't it!

Devo
P.S. Rigging that little bullet fairing in the last pic was.......interesting











Stop....what's that sound.....everybody look what's going down...

   Great Camel, Devo, your wood effect is very impressive. The more I see of this Kit the larger my Camel stash may grow, It's going to be hard to resist this one!
Cheers,
Lance

That's a cracker! A first class representation of a pioneering type.

Gorgeous!  After the Comic, the 2F.1 is my favorite Camel.
Cheers,

Thanks, that coaming was an experiment that very nearly went pear shaped!!!

I seem to have come along too late to see the pics... the dreaded Photobucket bandwidth horror has struck.

Any chance you could put them on another photo hosting site and re-post? I can heartily recommend Flickr... Want to see your Camel..

I can't see the pictures.  Any advice?
