Sopwith 5F.1 Dolphin Copper State Models 1/48
« on: June 26, 2018, 07:57:20 PM »
Sopwith 5F.1 Dolphin Copper State Models 1/48
It was a pleasant and a rather short build (due to good fit) and I must admit, I really enjoyed it.
It depicts the Dolphin C4168 of Major J.C. Callaghan, CO of 87 Sqn, Spring 1918
Painted with Tamiya and Mr.Color, artistic oils.
Rigging: EZ Line and fishing line.
For any 1/48th scale lovers - highly recommended.

Beautiful as always Filip.  If you had not mentioned that this was a 1/48 CSM kit, I would swear that it was a WNW 1/32 kit.  A true testament to your skills.

Truly stunning work as always Filip! You have inspired me to dig in to the rigging on my WNW Dolphin this weekend!

Really amazing Filip!

I don’t think I could face the rigging in that scale.. well done indeed.

Is it buckled?

Great work. The gentle weathering and the shading of the wings are terrific.
