    Lee Drennen’s Vintage 1971 Revell 1/72 Sopwith Camel

    Here’s another old Revell classic. This one was released in 1971. Thought I might try a little Scratch on this one by making the interior bracing and more. There will be little or NO Rigging I need to keep my sanity. Hope you will follow along thanks. Click image for larger version

      Laurie. Thanks actually it was a lot of fun building the Framing Work I thought it might be a nightmare but it wasn’t. Thanks for stopping by.

              Hi Lee
              That kit actually looks its age! Not a lot to it. Framing looks neat. Another golden oldie.

                No rigging? Money on you not resisting it...

                        Tim I hope this classic don’t beat me into submission. Have a seat but be careful I think John is reminiscing about the 1970s he might break out in a Disco move just let him have the floor.

                            Jim yes it does thought I would add a little to it instead of a cookie cutter build. Thanks for stopping by

                              You are probably right on the length but on the Rigging it is temping but I see what medication does to JR so I doubt if there will be Rigging.
