Hi all

Real world, but it still involved a TON of PSR, so I thought it counted for inclusion here. Got me second prize in my first model competition ;last week - woo!













Revell's rather nice 1:72 Sopwith Camel, with smaller turtledeck, reshaped wingtips and tail, single gun and smaller cowl.

Whenever I talked about wanting a Pup kit, Brian would always suggest I bash a Camel into one, as it shouldn't be too hard.

Well, I did it in less than a week, and had a ball. Finally a Pup for my collection, woo!


PS - Won an Airfix Pup off eBay two days later. Sigh...

PPS - Apologies for the bluriness, but I'm in a hurry as I'm off now to keep working on my 1:1 Pup...

Nice Zac! I knew you'd be able to pull it off! I bet few would catch that this build originally began life as a Camel!

Congratulations on taking home second place. Well earned!  :cheers:

You're learning the ways of the Force of Whiff, young Zacwalker.

P.S. Now your next step will be putting those guitar strings I sent you to use as rigging. It's not very hard. Honestly.  ^_^
