Dancona Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 This is the Wingnut Wings Bristol Fighter, what more can I say, beautiful kit in every way, challenging yes, but for all the right reasons. Built with no major mods other than some additional wiring and rigged in monofilament with the essential "Bobs Buckles" eyelets. This formed a welcome distraction from 1/400 aircraft carriers at the time !! Thank you for looking ! 60 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thorfinn Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 WOW! That is absolutely breathtaking! Truly inspiring (as in, I really need to dig mine out and actually build it....) Well done that man! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buzby061 Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 A thing of beauty indeed. I'm sorely tempted to get a Wingnut kit. Pete 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Basuroy Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 WOW ! I just love every single wingnut wing kits posted here and this is perhaps the best I have seen , due in parts to the open engine . I am curious about the marking though - why did the Maharaja present the Raj with this airplane ? Regards , Basu 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alpha Delta 210 Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 A cliché I know, but with a different background that could be mistaken for the real thing! Stunning in every way. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spitfire31 Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 Superbly realistic build of one of the ugliest biplanes I can remember having set eyes on. ;-) Thoroughly impressive modelling! Kind regards, Joachim 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
