Academy 1/32 scale Sopwith Camel

Recommended Posts

This link should take you to pictures of my effort with the Academy 1/32 scale Sopwith Camel.

 

I think I mentioned elsewhere that this kit is not in the same league as the Wingnut Sopwith with its simplified cockpit, oversize struts, big pre drilled rigging holes, massive wing troughs and absolutely horrible decals!!! But it’s also not in the price league, I paid 1/5 of the WN price.

 

But it fell together with no fit problems, has a nice engine and was a pleasure to build.

 

I think that it has the makings of a pretty decent kit in the hands of someone with more talent than me.
