Everything about this project has taken me a long time for some reason, I started it over a year ago, and had to put it aside for a while, but came back and finished it around two months ago, but never got round to put up pics. Let me know what you think!

I think it's a cracker.

I don't really do WWI but I've read a lot of very good reviews of the Wingnut kits. I'd be interested to hear how you found it to be.

FaNTASTIC! I love it norm, its a great looking aircraft. The Wingnut wings kits are supposed to be VERY good arent they? This one certainly looks excellent, and superbly finished by you too. This is a type of biplane i like as well -- no rigging !!! LOL!! 5 star job norm , lets hope the next doesnt keep us waiting so long ! Cheers tony

I think I will try to go FINALY finish that easy little 109 that has been dragging on so long no, thanks for the confidence. :P but yes, it was an excellent kit, it was my squirrel-like attention span that got in the way. I have three more of their kits, ought to have a go at those as well. Also, be warned, part fits are very tight on these kits, so be very careful dry-fitting, it may become permanent.

A very nice build there Norm!

I must admit to having a soft spot for the German WWI Paint jobs. It's like free choice of colour was much the order of the day.

Much better for the eye when on a shelf than green, green or green of the Allied WWI birds. Not sure it was a good idea though in real life.
