One model per (non-working) day

[wireandpaper]

Dear Bruno:
Very nice DH., and I certainly support the Fairey Hendon (or maybe a Bristol Bombay or an HP Harrow)

Amazing work as always.

Best regards to all.

Thanks you all,
The DH10 is now officially available as

Nr 1006 De Havilland DH.10 Amiens

And to continue, I can release the next three models:

Nr 1007 Sopwith 7.F1 Snipe early Brown
Nr 1008 Sopwith 7.F1 Snipe early Green 5 stripes
Nr 1009 Sopwith 7.F1 Snipe early Green 1-4

For the time being only WWI versions. I'll probably be recoloring in "silver" interwar versions in the coming days.
Here some pictures to show the test build.

Bruno not forget Brazilian navy version of Snipe!!!

AN-MB use a total of 12 Snipes in 1920's, exist few pics and drawnings of period but this pic help for made a version, is silver /or gray Snipe, with red cownling, the cocars are in four positions just like british planes...

[batesyboy]

Irrelevant historical note !
I guess it`s well out of the scope of this thread...but anyway...
The Snipe soldiered on when totally outclassed in every aspect by another british aeroplane..due to politics mainly,
an obsolete engine concept(the bentley rotary) and an indifferent airframe were kept in production,
proving that the lesson of keeping the BE2 series in production had been ignored.

Not at all out of the scope of the thread, Batesyboy.
Always interesting to know more about planes. Indeed, post WWI politics and restrictions in budget kept the older Snipe and Brisfit into service for several years. Therefore I can release several postwar recolors of the Sopwith Snipe (late version with modified upper wing ailerons)

Nr 1010 Sopwith Snipe late 23 squadron
Nr 1011 Sopwith Snipe late 56 squadron
Nr 1012 Sopwith Snipe late 1923 RAF Pageant (Bonzo)
Nr 1013 Sopwith Snipe late 19 squadron
Nr 1014 Sopwith Snipe late Brasil didn't someone suggest that

Dear Bruno:
Very nice addition to your collection
Since the tide suggest late WW I and early 20's, and you are not afraid of struts as you demonstrated with the Felixstowe seaplanes, may be it is time for Caproni's Ca.60 Noviplano! and if 1/100 is to big you may do it in1/300 and I bet it would be a best seller!
Happy modeling.
Pablo
Ps: Any commemorative model for the 5000 post (like the Hendon, Bombay, Harrow, or Angelito (Hs-123 from the Condor Legion))?

Hi Bruno, I`ve put a fresh thread up called `Martinsyde connections` in `the other things we do` thread group, hope somebody finds it interesting !
Cheers

I've done a few recolors and adaptations today.

Nr 1015 Vickers Vincent 244 Sqn
Nr 1016 Henschel Hs 123 Spain 3-tone camo
Nr 1017 Henschel Hs 123 Spain Angelito 1

Up to the next model. (perhaps not a Martinsyde at this moment, but it's on the list)

Today I can add yet another type (in two liveries) of aircraft to my list:

Nr 1018 Vickers Vimy bomber brown
Nr 1019 Vickers Vimy bomber grey

Since the first model sometimes is shown in green in stead of "chocolate brown", I'm hesitating to make it available with the same number.

Again some pictures of the test build.
