Sopwith Camel Eduard 1/48 Forder
« on: February 15, 2018, 06:28:01 AM »
My latest build - Forder`s Camel built OOB for a friend of mine. I`ve used elastic thread to imitate RFC wires. It was a pure joy apart from the cowling.



















Best regards
Filip

   A very nice Camel Filip, the finish is exceptional and the rigging detail very well done. It looks like a larger scale, nice work!
Cheers,
Lance

What a surprise. A Camel not from WNW?  :D
A very fine build, Filip.

Very beautiful build!

I have never seen the Eduard Camel, but if it is anything like their Sopwith Triplane, then I bet it was not easy to get such beautiful result.

That’s a masterpiece from the wheel to the wingtips. Wonderful!

Very realistic results, especially the oil and dirt on the bottom.
