1/72 Bristol Bullock

[Brian da Basher]

Here's my 1/72 Bristol Bullock in S. African markings bashed from the venerable 1/72 Airfix Bristol Bulldog. I tried to imagine Bristol coming up with something to compete with the Gloster Gladiator. The engine, cowling, and prop are the sole survivors of the 1/72 Williams Bros Martin B-10 and the wheels were from the 1/144 Minicraft B-29. The wheel struts were leftover parts from the 1/144 Minicraft P-38 and the canopy is a wonderfully cheap vac from squadron. The wing guns were scratchbuilt. Markings are from Blue Rider and rigging is, as always, courtesy of my sewing box.

DANG that's a great concept! We definitely need more biplane whiffs.
