CAMEL
Sopwith
F.1
The Sopwith Camel, the iconic World War One fighter and if my
memory serves me correctly, an aircraft Wingnut Wings said they
would not model with so many kits of the Camel already available.
But who else would do justice to the fighter in 1:32? Happily
Wingnut Wings have reconsidered and have now released a
grand total of five different Camel kits and a sixth in a duelist twin
kit release along with the out of production LVG C.VI. Justice has
been done to the Camel by any standards!
It has been a little while since I had time to clear my cluttered
bench and dive into the modelling pleasure that is a Wingnut
Wings kit but the box art on this F.1 “Clerget” with its big fuselage
graphics immediately caught my imagination although with a little
over two weeks before our print deadline it would need to be a
fast moving project! For those unfamiliar with a Wingnut Wings kit
it is a simple but brilliant proposition. High quality precision
engineered parts with crisp moulding in grey plastic are provided
along with a small equally high quality photoetched fret. Cartograf
are commissioned to print the highest quality decals you could
imagine to allow you a choice of six different schemes and a full
colour booklet. The clear and comprehensive nature of the booklet
provides all the information, reference and colour guides you will
need to construct the model and all you need to provide are the
paints and rigging material of your choice.
