Replicated a couple modifications William Barker made to his Camel. 3D printed a jig to draw out where the cowling slots needed to be cut away. Luckily Eduard did provide a top wing with the wider opening, just had to add styrene and bend a wire to shape.

Did some 3D modeling & printing for the Camel. I'm doing Barker's plane, which had funnel intakes that Eduard expects you to scratch-build. The kit seat and Vickers cooling jacket look alright, but printing gives a lot more detail.
#histscalemodels
Yeah, it's a very nice looking kit so far, well detailed and nothing seems overly fiddly.

Internal parts for Sopwith Camel model
Started on my first kit of the year, Eduard's Sopwith Camel. All the various internal bits are ready for paint. Added some wire for fuel piping, plus a seat cushion I 3D printed for a previous attempt at this kit.

Decals and matte varnish down, so I can pull the masking off. And now, on to the weathering. #histscalemodels

Fox then cuts the day ago part out while showing a call that happened on the 7th. Seems like a very intentional misrepresentation to me.
