Revell Sopwith F.1 Camel

This time the kit didn´t come with a potted history of which day of the week it was flown over somewhere by Lt general so and so. It did come with a nice little set of playing cards, but unfortunately they were very small and dreadfully thin, so I stuck a couple of them on the wings in case the pilot got bored whilst flying. 
This time I used stretched sprue to construct the rigging, a bit better than waxed sowing thread but still a pain in the backside to fit. If I build this plane again (not this particular one, that would be silly) I would add a couple of extras...lewis gun, windscreen etc.
