Bristol Bulldog MkII - Airfix 1:48

[Stefee]

Last winged thing I built of any significance was 50+ years ago but your build has certainly hit a strong nerve with me. Loving all mechanical things the exposed engine is very appealing.
Your build is exemplary and the colour scheme gorgeous.
Must make stash smaller.... resist temptation..... make appointment with therapist.......

That's a lovely job .

[colin m]

well, actually it's a Fury 'One', and a Bulldog 'Two'. See what I did there

Come on Chris, there must be a '3' something out there to give me a 1,2,3 ?

[colin m]

exposed engine is very appealing.

I fell for the engine. No will power, saw the box art, and that was it.

Outstanding work Colin.

Probably the nicest sliver winged biplane thingy build I've seen. Superb work sir.

Easy. Siskins are III. And there are three service variants. III, IIiDC, and IIIA

Hmm, yeah. Now Airfix really do have to do one...
Or find the Aeroclub one

[Jim R]

That is a result to be proud of. Very nice indeed.

Beautiful finish there Colin. Have been itching to get one for a long time but in the early days rigging and biplanes were a daunting task for me. Love the work on the engine and rigging you've done and not a new mould you say? Wow.

Cheers,

Fantastic result Colin.

[David Lovell]

Wingys not my thing but that Colin is absolutely inspirational I'll find some time today to crack on with what I'm doing well done. Dave

The Bulldog is a new mould, it’s the Fury that was a very old mould.

That is most excellent SIr. A fantastic finish on a great build. Looks like I have found me a new aircraft.
Wonderful.
