Thanks for that! Pretty good set of pics.

Since reference on this aircraft seems a bit thin on the ground, I thought I'd start a thread. There is of course this: https://bristolscout.wordpress.com/ Which has a lot of info, though pics are small and scattered. Really hoping the 3D work will be made available, commercial or otherwise. First time I've seen an aircraft in CDL and the translucence very much part of the character. I wish CSM would do a clear version, to easily achieve this effect. An alternative would be creating the full structure and covering with....something. I've seen the 'smoke and mirror' tricks with paint and fake shadows, but that just doesn't hit the spot. Maybe Aviattic will do a 3D printed frame, like they did for the Fokker D.VII, one can hope...

Just picked mine up....NICE! The translucence of it will be a challenge, I've seen the paint tricks, but they're not really convincing. 🫣

Oooohhhh nice! I'm currently looking for a Caterham, but they're a bit thin on the ground here in NL.

Any aftermarket option available?

Isn't that what everyone does?

These look right up my street!

There's a set of the JaPo books on the 'bay from an Italian seller. A mere snip at €360

Repeated from my post in the WW1 section, apologies. Is there a book that details chronologically the development of fighter aircraft? WW1 aircraft development seems to have moved at incredible pace, with new aircraft being (semi) retired after mere months because of obsolescence. I would like to know more of the 'action - reaction' in technology and tactics.

Dammit I keep forgetting scale.....

Does anybody do brass engine plates (PE or decals) for Rotaries/inline engines?

He doesn't half sell it! A-4 yay!

Maybe a mod could pin this somewhere ?

I find this truly fascinating, but where can I read what all the values actually mean?
