Hi everyone, nice builds wish I'd built oob Torchy
Anyway I have to admit failure, this is as far as the Camel got after burning copious quantities of midnight oil and thus fallig asleep at work (hope no-one noticed)




Unfortunatly rigging is incomplete, no ailerons, no control horns,cowl latches, gun sights, wing decals, lots of touching in to do, tyres to paint. I like it so I am completing it even as I start a FIAT CR42 (a biplane but no rigging)
Lessons, if you're short on time build oob and don't experiment with strange rigging techniques.
Great campaign Terri, even if I didn't finish, I am enjoying the build of an excellent kit.

What can I say Jaypee , Excellent build my friend ! It has such a sinister look and feel to it .
Thanks for joining in on the GB . You always come up with very interesting colour schemes

Well Andrew you gived your best and so far your project looks very nice . I find that the rigging can take most time to finish on a kit . ( depending on how many wires of course ) Please share some pic's when you get her done . Would love to see the final results of your labour !

Still have on day to go folks / Tomorrow night at 12 is the deadline
