Here comes Snoopy in his Sopwith Camel.

I worked on the propeller today. I think it looks OK.
I'm planning to add so thin stripes to it to give it the sandwich look by painting it a lighted blonde color

Any feed back is always welcome. Should I add stripes or leave it the way it is, or any thing else added or removed?

I think it looks great. I like the grain on it. Nice work. Very clean

I think after this build I will be starting my tank recovery diorama. It's been calling my name so it's time.

Looking forward to seeing some great pictures.

I might change the brass front pipework back to chrome as most of the photos I have looked at shows them this way. Pantherman

Repainted the engine pipework and got the fuselage together. Bit of filler needed on the belly, might need a little on the top seam as well. Pantherman

Not my best photos, must do better. Pantherman

Good job. I like the engine better with the repaint.

Looks nice like that!

My attempt at making canvas.I painted the hull in olive drab then muddled a layer of grey green, then sand ivory. I kind of messed up on one side – too much ivory sand. I might layer a couple of colors light to dark and final color... it is a trial-and-error type approach. To canvas

I haven't had a ton of time lately but fuselage interior is painted up. I was using the inside to play with some paints and washes. I think it looks nice even though no one will see it

I like it. Great definition it does like very nice.

 

[GaryG64]

Although there is a small booboo, I think I might have achieved a canvas look!
It looks better I'm person.

Like it,especially the seat. Pantherman

 

[TimM63]

I have made a little progress. Got the engine mounted, cowling on, the guns installed, and the front painted.

Looking good! I haven't much done at all.

I noticed the guns are not in alignment when I looked at the front view picture.
I will be fixing them.

Had to mix my own color for the underside of the wings. I didn't like any of the colors I had on hand.
