BradG Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 Usual Tamiya quality and good to start with if you haven't built a biplane like myself. I also used the Tamiya etch set, which is alright, but I'm not sure I'd use it again. It's easier to put the rigging on before attaching the wings, but if you do that you run the real risk if having the rigging wires distort once you slot the wings on. That said, I think they look pretty good, but are fairly fragile. Tomek 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSP_Kevin Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 Looks great Brad! Must get one of these kits myself one day. Another candidate for Expo? Kev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shawn M Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 gorgeous! Rockets on a fabric aircraft seems (to me) like a horrible idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattlow Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 Lovely Swordfish Brad. I like the busy look of the later machines. gorgeous! Rockets on a fabric aircraft seems (to me) like a horrible idea. They had a sizeable metal panel on the underside to protect the wing from blast - even so, a volatile mix! Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BradG Posted April 29, 2012 Author Share Posted April 29, 2012 Thanks Guys. Yeh it's another entry for expo, which is only 40 days away! I actually clipped the rockets off the rails as I couldn't find a pic of one with both rockets and a torpedo and I figured, you'd be configured for either one or the other, not both.
