goon Posted January 1, 2019 Share Posted January 1, 2019 I got some shots of my Pup taken this afternoon. Here are some to show the completed model. Here you can see the split axle method of adding to some 'suspension' to the undercarriage. There would normally be some bungee cord over the top of the axle and under the faired strut below, pulling the wheel down. I stupidly forgot to add these parts and it proved impossible to rectify. Happy New Year everyone! 43 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Epeeman Posted January 1, 2019 Share Posted January 1, 2019 Fantastic result on your WNW Pup. How did you get on with the lower wing fit? - I have built this in the past - mine was very tight and I had to do a fair bit of trimming to get it on right.

goon Posted January 1, 2019 Author Share Posted January 1, 2019 Thanks for the comments everyone. @EpeemanI was aware of the potential of the rear wing to be a problem from my research, but mine went in with no issues, other than being a bit of a 'click' fit.

Gimme Shelter Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 Now that is very nice. I commend your application of the decals over the raised surfaces - another dark art that I have yet to master myself. The base looks smashing making the whole model quite superb. I am due to inherit a Sopwith Pup propeller that my father picked up from the hangar at Hamble where he trained as a pilot - it is a big solid lump of laminated timber which I ran head first into at the age of 4 while he was restoring it in the lounge of our old family home - the force of impact to my forehead left my left me in an ambulance and epileptic ever since. A great model with a chilling reminder of how dangerous the full size thing can still be while being restored! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
