Jon Kunac-Tabinor Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 Hi - just finished this for the WW1 group build. WNW's excellent model with Aviattic and Pheons equally excellent decals. Build thread is here which explains it all http://www.britmodeller.com/forums/index.php?/topic/234964020-wnw-sopwith-triplane-8-squadron-royal-naval-air-service/ Finished in markings of 8 Squadron RNAS. If you are at Telford this weekend it will on display at the Pheon / Aviattic stand - so pop over and say hi. Cheers Jonners 23 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robin-42 Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 Absolutely splendid ! always amazed about the incredible skill needed for a ww1 model... fantastic ! olivier Jon's is a beauty, but you don't need much skill to get a good result with a WNW kit. If you can build a model you can build one of theirs. The wings align perfectly and the rigging is just a matter of patience. I have built the EIII, Pup and have the Snipe under way, my Triplane after that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndyC Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 Beautiful work Jonners - I saw one for £60 at Telford and thought long and hard and walked away - wish I hadn't now having seen yours Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Viking Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 Another outstanding build Jonners, The underside oil/mud staining is fantatsic, it looks exactly right. Whats on the bench next? Cheers John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
louiex2 Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 Excellent work- the flying scarf haning out of the cockpit is a nice touch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonyot Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 Great stuff Jonners and I love the scarf! I didn`t get as far as the Pheon stand so didn`t manage to see it for real,...which is a bit of a bummer! You`ve made a lovely job of it mate, Well done, Tony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Kunac-Tabinor Posted November 9, 2014 Author Share Posted November 9, 2014 Cheers everyone - it was a very enjoyable build, and the decals certainly help to make the PC10 finish look a little more, well less dull! LOL Have to admit - Im really chuffed with the scarf too! I think it just makes the model come alive a little. Another outstanding build Jonners, The underside oil/mud staining is fantatsic, it looks exactly right. Whats on the bench next? Cheers John Viking - as well as trying to get the Hannover finished finally, my next biplane will be the Nieuport 16 using the SH Nieuport 11 converted ( Telford buy!). Im planning on using some forthcoming decals, but I wont tell you what the scheme is yet, so you can have a ball guessing! Cheers Jonners Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NickT Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 Lovely model. Saw it on your stand at the weekend which encouraged me to buy the decals. Hope mine turns out anything like as good as yours. Nick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spookytooth Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 Great build Jon. These WNW kits are the dog`s dangly bits it seems. Simon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buzby061 Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 Bloody lovely! I hovered around yesterday & saw it, still contemplating getting one. Bought some EZline so that's a start! Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nobby57 Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 Brilliant! And with the stick slightly to starboard too. Because it's an RNAS machine I'm totally biased but you have made an exceptionally nice model. Well done! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jon Kunac-Tabinor Posted November 11, 2014 Author Share Posted November 11, 2014 Cheers chaps - I must admit - I know all its flaws - so its a bit of a 5 footer for me, but it is nice to know you lot like her! Jonners Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
