Adrian Davies Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 Hello all, This is my rendition of WNW's superb FE.2b. I built this as my first completed biplane model. An amazing kit, to which I added very little.The little I did add where: a motor to the propeller, I modified the undercarriage to show an unloaded in flight condition, and two crew members from the Wings Cockpit range. Bobs Buckles helped with the rigging. Thank You. Adrian 32 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GDumbrell Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 Constantly amazed by the skill of the modellers on this forum. This one is truly epic. Just looking at it makes you want to turn round to see what's attacking it. Well done. Truly inspirational and fantastic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rmcclure Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 Wow - you certainly jumped in at the deep end with your choice of first biplane! What a tremendous result though. One of my favorite WNW builds that I've seen here. Cheers, Roger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jonners Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 Seriously, your first biplane? From this, I would have thought you had been building them expertly for years. Stunning. Jon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viking Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 Totally brilliant! Works well with the 'inflight' dispaly. It's the only way to show those figures off. Awsome job. Cheers john Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mitch K Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 Breathtaking! Quite apart from the absolutely superb work on the aircraft, your figure painting skills are exquisite. Thanks for showing your work! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonyot Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 I agree with everything that has been said already but I`d just like to add that the Fe is one of my favourite WW1 aircraft and by adding such a well detailed crew, mounting it in flight and having a running engine you have portrayed it in the best manner that I have seen to date for this type,......simply stunning and for a first time biplane,.....wow!

Duncan B Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 I could look at this for hours, I've already spent at least 30 minutes staring at it and am still oohing and aahing over it. Really wonderful model and the finish is first class. I particularly like the translucent look of the wings looking from underneath, very clever painting.
