825 Posted July 17, 2016 Share Posted July 17, 2016 Here is my bash at the Airfix BE2c. Straight OOB. Went together really well and looks a nice little machine. The boxing has two options that flown by William Leefe Robinson of 39 Squadron RFC, in which he shot down a Zeppelin. I chose the RNAS option which doesn't identify the squadron but is the Royal Naval Air Squadron East Fortune, East Lothian, December 1916. I chose this one due to my FAA/RNAS interests, the option for the rockets on the struts and the fact I had worked a little at East Fortune Hospital, which is on the same basic site, back in the '80's. The WIP can be found http://www.britmodeller.com/forums/index.php?/topic/235003821-be2c/page-1 . As said straight out of the box using one set of the transfers provided. I used Revell Aqua Olive Green for the PC10 and Citadel Bleached Bone with a touch of yellow for the Linen. Had a bash at natural wood which is variable. No rigging as life's too short. I like it and it's a good build, had fun doing it. Foliage deliberate (or possibly optional) 17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave N Posted July 17, 2016 Share Posted July 17, 2016 Looking good... (woudn't mind seeing a few pics from "ground level" though!) Might have to get one of these. Cheers, D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will see what I can do Dave. I mainly use my iPad for photos so although good for above not such a good device for level photos. I'll see what I can conjure up tomorrow. May end up with a new skill.

eng Posted July 17, 2016 Share Posted July 17, 2016 Very nice build indeed. Been over to East Fortune a couple of times this year, a great museum. Try the iPad upside down for the pics, I had the same difficulty getting pics of my Seaking last week. Eng Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DennisTheBear Posted July 18, 2016 Share Posted July 18, 2016 Ahhh, the way a MODEL BIPLANE should be, sans rigging! I will now change my name and move to Bolivia to avoid all those with AMS who are now after me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers, D I've played about with the iPad and hopefully these will pass muster. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
