Built straight out of the box, lots of etched brass extras, rigged with fine wire.
Blimey, where did that come from?
Looks nice.
Haddock.
I know you are quick but that was very very very quick - even at the speed you have done it , it is excellent.
I have had it on the go for a while, it emerged when I found the Fokker.
Triplane, that is.
Don't you ever sleep......?
Cor' Blimey mate, talk about Omicron being phenomenal in its spread, your building ain't far behind.
Bigkev
Omicron Smith - it has a ring to it don't you think ::) ::) ::) ::) ::) ::)
Well actually.....
At work we are naming it 'Moronic' (Anag). Not sure if Zak will think that complementary........?

Got to love a Dolphin... but did you build it for any particular porpoise? Lovely work, zak,
Hello GR.1.
The porpoise is I love biplanes, but find them hard to build.
Whale I wonder who you are?
I wasn't really hiding.... just having difficulty deciding on an avatar. I suppose I should use one that shows who I am. Is that orca(y)?
It's me! Hello and thanks for having me...

Very hard to see the avatar, too small.
Is that you being airy fairy?
Hi Chris,
The avatar probably does not do you justice!
Welcome aboard Matey.

That's me being at Lissett!

I'll find another Avatar... didn't realise that it couldn't be viewed larger!
Nice to have you on board anyway.
It's great to be here... now I just need to justify my presence!

Good to have you on the web site - anybody who quotes from "Blade Runner" is always welcome - hohoho
Don't lead him astray Msea.
He is a nice normal chap, we don't want him going to the 'dark side' or 'zombie world'
ho, ho, ho, ho ( it's Christmas, after all)
Bigkev
MSea, loved Blade Runner from the release.... It seemed to take most folk 20 years to realise it was brilliant!

Welcome aboard whoever you are.
The Sopwith looks very nice Dave and you're definitely faster than omicron!
I guess that, instead of hijacking zak's thread, I should go and introduce myself in the General Chat section....

Great build Zak. I still haven't plucked up the courage to take on rigging wires but I need to as there's a few kits in the stash with them
Well, I am building another one, so here is the build.
All the brass for some rigging Dave?
Yes, some already on the inner surface,
More progress.
Looking well up to your normal standard.

That could mean anything really!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yep !!!!
Thanks for nothing Martin, Love you too - well maybe not.
All interior details in place and fuselage closed up.
Wings added on large aluminium plate, thanks to haddock for that.
Coming along nicely.
He will have a full squadron by Wed night ::) ::) ::) ::) ::)

Not quite, I am building this as a commission for someone else.
Nice cockpit detail.
Thanks Chris.
Rigging underway, the superglue just will not stick today, I'll have a rest and try later.
Looking very nice.
Almost there, rigged and only the windshield to add.
Another great addition to the fleet

Unfortunately this was built as a commission for A.N.Other.
Well at least you have had the FUN of making it ::) ::) ::) ::) ::)
Matched pair.
Some more exquisite rigging. Very nice Dave.
