Wdedig Posted August 28, 2022 Share Posted August 28, 2022 The aircraft depicted was a Camel used/provided by Lt Kenneth Murray in the Kosciuszko Sq in 1920. This is the Eduard older Sopwith, not sure why they needed a newer one ! O-well Painted with Gunze Color and Alclad for Natural metal cowling. Slight weathering with Tamiya weathering powders for a bit of dirt and dust to break-up green and show some wear. Decals were from Model Master in Poland and were really nice. I did not take any chances, so I used an undercoat of white decal on each of the checkerboard insignia and Kosciuszko Sq insignia.No feedthrough. Rigging was a combination of Ceramic wires and Usci Thread. Bobs Buckles from UK were used for attachment points (Love those items). Wood finishes were Brown oils over Gunze sail color and coated with Future . Thanks for Looking Comments Always Welcome Bill D. 26 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spitfire31 Posted August 29, 2022 Share Posted August 29, 2022 Beautiful Camel! That Alclad cowling looks like… metal! And the taut rigging gives it a suitably authorative atmosphere. Superb work. Kind regards, Joachim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
