The completed Scooter.
KP again must be thanked for the release of yet another
beautiful civil plane.
In this case the box offers the chance to build either a
Scooter or its descendant the Swallow. Some parts have been provided to cater
for each of them, but the wing and a couple more things need a little work to
obtain a more accurate Scooter. These mods are well within the skills of an
average modeler.
It is indeed a colorful, jumpy little fella, much more
gracious than its parent the Sopwith Camel.
I went for a simple build -only correcting what I mentioned
during the building post- but this can be the canvas for a lot of fun, if you
decide to go that way.
If you are interested and/or already have the kit, I
recommend you visit the step-by-step building article to avoid a few pitfalls.
Other than that, I am so very happy with this quick and
rewarding build of a peppy mount that, besides being the personal plane of
Harry Hawker, participated with some success in a number of aviation events
later on.
Hermoso trabajo Mr. Stern. Y muy buenas fotos... Te tocó un día con una iluminación 100%, buena luz desde todos los ángulos. Muy lindo avioncito... Abrazote

DeleteAnother nice example of a civilian plane. I think I'm going to order one for myself as well :-)
