Dan Hayward 623 Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 I just finished this today. I admit I was intimidated by the way the lower wing attaches to the fuselage but I managed to get it together- twice, since I knocked it off due to clumsiness shortly after getting it together the first time. I used a set of old Airfix decals and rigged it with >005" Nitinol wire. -Dan 61 2 Link to post Share on other sites

dov 2,858 Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 To get this aircraft done in this tiny scale: Congretulation. Your nerves and patience still ok? Everybody in your surrounding surveid unharmed? Happy modelling 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Epeeman 2,015 Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 Well done, Dan - Superb work on your Brisfit, especially in this scale - I've often wondered about this actual kit from Roden myself - I'm really tempted now seeing yours. Regards Dave Link to post Share on other sites
TheyJammedKenny! 1,751 Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 That is beautiful! You really have nerves of steel to handle this kit in such small scale. I'd love to see a Bristol Fighter and a Bristol 170 Freighter posed together! A study in contrasts... Alex Link to post Share on other sites

Vile Traveller 18 Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 Nice to see a Brisfit in the flesh. If you had trouble with that lower wing attachment, just imagine what it must have been like for the real thing! Link to post Share on other sites
