G'Day All,
okay, its technically not a RAAF aircraft, however, this aircraft served with the Australian Flying Corps (AFC) during WWI.
The AFC become the RAAF in 1921.
So, here is the Toko 1/72 Sopwith 1 1/2 Strutter marked up as A5967 from 2 Sqn AFC.
According to the Australian War Memorial (https://www.awm.gov.au/collection/H12729:33), this aircraft flew in France, during WWI.
The kit is built straight out of the box. I didn't rig the model, as I wanted an easy build, since this is one of several bi-planes I built at the same time.
The model was painted with Gunze and Vallejo acrylics and Humbrol Enamels.
Decals are a mixture of kit decals and number decal from a stenciling set.
