This is the very small SE5a by Revell, still available for less than £3.00, a true pocket money model. Ok it's pretty basic, but at this price - what do you expect. Nevertheless, I was still impressed with the model. I didn't have any decent 'in scale' rigging so used cotton ! It's my first WW1 plane, but think I might try another. You might have worked out by now, I'm quite impressed by cheap Revell models.

And of course being a WW1 plane, I had to try the sepia setting on the camera !

Nice one Colin. I bet the rigging was a bit tricky on a 1:72. Looks good. I used 2lb fishing line on the 1:48

You've done a nice job there on a 1/72 kit!
