Sandbagger Posted July 6, 2023 Share Posted July 6, 2023 Hi all, This is the 1:32nd scale ‘Copper State Models’ model of Bristol Scout C, Serial number 1260 of No.5 Wing (RNAS), operating from Dover as part of Home Defence in 1916. As usual, a fully detailed build log, which includes all materials, modifications, rigging etc for this build can be downloaded from the 'Logs' page on my site. https://mikesww1aircraftmodels.com/ Thanks for your comments and support throughout this build, Mike 31 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billn53 Posted July 7, 2023 Share Posted July 7, 2023 That’s an amazing model / vignette you’ve made. The first few photos, taken at a distance, look great. The closeups are even better. That’s just the opposite than with my builds. 😆 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edger Posted July 7, 2023 Share Posted July 7, 2023 Fantastic build. Would the Naval Officers had white tops to their peak caps during WW1? I may be wrong but I though they were navy blue all over? But again superb Bristol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MRMRL Posted July 8, 2023 Share Posted July 8, 2023 Superb, I really need to get better at doing the wood grain before I tackle more biplanes, your propellor looks like the real thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skodadriver Posted July 8, 2023 Share Posted July 8, 2023 Not my scale or my area of interest but that is truly, jaw-droppingly wonderful. Congratulations on what is one of the finest pieces of modelling I have ever seen. Dave G Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The propeller is not really my work. It's a wood laminate propeller made by Alexey Belov of 'Proper Plane', Mike 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter Lloyd Posted July 10, 2023 Share Posted July 10, 2023 Models like this make me feel like I should just throw it all in. Please take that as my weird way of saying, beautiful work. A truly stunning result. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
