Out2gtcha Posted August 9, 2014 Author Share Posted August 9, 2014 Thanks guys! Very much appreciate the fine comments and stopping in on me. It was a fabulous little kit with 0 real niggles that I could expand on, other than wait to attach the rear of the Aldis site until after you put on the top wing, since you will have to feed in through the windscreen. K1, Sure NP on putting it on the web site. Feel free to publish anything of mine I put up here on LSP.com. Tony, Sounds like a heck of a project! I enjoy scratching, but sometimes projects like that bog me down................Id say if you really like the Snipe that much, pick up a WnW kit.................it was a FABULOUS build! Thanks again all! MikeC 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Out2gtcha Posted August 10, 2014 Author Share Posted August 10, 2014 Thanks Joe..................this was definitely a quicky for me, but kept things light on the weathering. Im not a SME on interwar planes, but it seemed they kept these fairly clean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomek Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 Congrats Brian! She looks great:) I love your restrained weathering. Looks very convincing. As usual, hats off for your magic with Reynolds foil - this alone puts your model a level higher. Out2gtcha 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1to1scale Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 very nice, I like the contrasting silvers. Out2gtcha 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaka HI Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 Wow, I missed this one! Love the underside weathering...it's very convincing. Out2gtcha 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Out2gtcha Posted September 12, 2017 Author Share Posted September 12, 2017 Thanks lads! For whatever reason, not many people seem to like this one or give it much thought. Maybe I take it for granted seeing it every day in the display case. The foil turned out ok, but the seems are pretty noticeable. I loved the kit though. Was a fun build!

DeanKB Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 Great build, looks superb, as usual. The Snipe is not very well known, it's not as sexy as the Pup, Camel or D.VII because it lacks the back story of the WWI birds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobs Buckles Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 Tis a thing of real beauty. Well done!! von B Out2gtcha 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R Palimaka Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 Wow, didn't see this one. Glad the thread got resurrected! That is a wonderful build. I especially like the convincing weathering, not too heavy, just enough to show an inter-war aircraft in service. Beyond the weathering...it's just stunning, all the tiny details are perfect, and the finish is superb. Very real and in scale, not toy-like at all. I'd be proud to have this on my shelf!

Out2gtcha Posted September 13, 2017 Author Share Posted September 13, 2017 Dean, Bob, Richard, thanks for the extremely kind words. It was one of the more fun builds for me, for whatever reason, a lot more fun than the Fokker DV.II. No clue why, since it technically was probably less work (with the exception of the Aviattic decals). I think its rigging. The more the better. I guess Im masochistic. I think that is probably why my DH.2 is one of my all time most fun builds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
