Finished this during the weekend. it has been half built on the shelf for a while now and after finishing the 1/72 Gotha I already was in "fiddly mode" so it went together quite easy. Built pretty much OOB, painted with oils over acrylics, rigged with elastic thread. And some extra thin for size comparison Thanks for looking! __________________ Daniel

Thanks! I really like to do these tiny planes from time to time. With the elastic thread the rigging isn't that difficult. __________________ Daniel

Wow, that IS tiny! How did they manage to produce a Lewis gun so small? __________________

Wings, fuselage, prop and wheels are plastic. The gun, wingstruts and undercarriage are PE and the exhaust is supplied in resin. __________________ Daniel
