Daz's Scout Experimental 5a **DNF**

A World War One GB - any subject, any scale, 1914-1918 - this is not a 1914-specific GB.
Runs 6 weeks, July 28th to September 8th, to allow plenty of time for biplanes, rigging, and holidays.
Your GBL is Chris, assisted by jRatz.

Hey, good one ! Did it not come with a Lewis gun for above the wing ?

It's my model and I'll do what I want with it.

It did, but it broke off and was floating around in the box it was stored in. The Lewis is back in place now.

ARGH!!!!

I give up. I've been trying for the past hour now to glue ONE bracing wire to this SE5a, and no matter what I do, the bloody thing just will not stick!

I'll finish it without. I haven't got much in the way of hair to pull out in frustration....!

I'll have this finished by tomorrow - sans rigging wires, I'm afraid!

Pity it didn't work out for you on the rigging, but yeah - it can really do your head in.

Well, it looks like I'm not going to finish this one today, as the decals seem to have gone AWOL!!

:cry: :cry: :cry:

I'll bung it up in the Aviation modelling forum and finish it off there.
