Mish Posted January 3, 2015 Posted January 3, 2015 Started this one a few month ago and lost my modelling 'mojo' for a while but got back in to the build over the Christmas/new year holiday season Seatbelt from HGW Bit of a jump as I forgot to take photos Taking shape Paint going on Started the engine The 'Tripe' is now a 'Bipe' More soon...
Administrators James H Posted January 3, 2015 Administrators Posted January 3, 2015 Nice work on the Tripehound Mish. Looks like WNW could feature more in your modelling future Great looking work, and welcome to LSM! 1
Mish Posted January 4, 2015 Author Posted January 4, 2015 More done today Wing struts in place I have the upper wing on now but can't photograph it as the model is upside down on the bench, whilst the cement and joints set. I'll try and update tomorrow.
Mish Posted January 5, 2015 Author Posted January 5, 2015 Okay the top wing of the trip is now in place And with the engine cowl on More soon
Mish Posted January 6, 2015 Author Posted January 6, 2015 Thanks, never built a WnW or a WW1 plane in this scale before. I'm going with the French Navy option, thus the fuselage colour not being the normal dark brown colour that seemed to be the norm with RFC I'm trying to find out if the prop was a one piece unit or of laminated construction.
Administrators Fran Posted January 7, 2015 Administrators Posted January 7, 2015 Looks quite good! love the interior rigging! Did you use EZ Line?
Mish Posted January 7, 2015 Author Posted January 7, 2015 Yep ezline used for internal rigging and control lines and will be used for the external rigging and control lines.
