Continued progress with the Three Seat Biplane.

[zak]

My attempts to built a Sopwith Tabloid and a Schneider.
Both started life as Airfix Pups.
The fuselages were reshaped using plastic sheet and Green Stuff two part filler for the noses.
The wings were filled, the shape altered, the ailerons filled and the re-scribed.
The tails were remodelled from plastic card and the spares box.
The floats were scratch built from plastic sheet. The supports are a little think, but I was going for strength.
Structs are from aerofoil section plastic.

Good scratch building.

Three seat tractor biplane completed.

Another nice unusual aircraft from the Bempton Aerodrome.

Excellent.

Nor much progress really, life has been intruding on my modelling.
Here are the Schneider and Tabloid.

Yes life has that habit does it not - but they still look great.  Now going out to see friends for afternoon tea - so no modelling today I expect 

[cph64]
