Sopwith Triplane

Hi Paper Modelers,





I posted the following today on papermodels@googlegroups.com of which I am familiar. Perhaps someone on this list would be interested since I obtained the model here...thank you to the designer and Leif.Ohlsson.



I hope to post this message and photos correctly.



Again, thank you Paper Modelers.com for providing these terrific examples.

Howdy Folks,



This nicely designed and detailed model was a free download from Papermodelers.com.



Printed on Wausau 90 lb exact index.



Thought I'd share a few in-process photos of the build:



SCORING:

Done on a light table with two layers of Kleenex tissue as padding.

A plastic business card was the straight edge and a worn out ball point pen made the impression.



WHEELS:

After cutting out and fumbling with all the paper tire rings, I substituted discs punched out of a Cheerios cereal box cover

and will sand to shape later.



PARTS READY FOR ASSEMBLY:

The wing rib scoring is evident in this snap shot. The shine is from several coats of Krylon Clear Acrylic gloss.
