Sopwith Pup
IM BACK! Its certainly been a long time since i've been here. I look forward to telling you all about all the things that have happened in the last year, once I find out how to upload on the forums again. Anyway, here it is! The Sopwith Pup! I think this is my best creation yet. Info: The Sopwith Pup was a British single-seater biplane fighter aircraft built by the Sopwith Aviation Company. It entered service with the Royal Flying Corps and the Royal Naval Air Service in the autumn of 1916. With pleasant flying characteristics and good manoeuvrability, the aircraft proved very successful. The Pup was eventually outclassed by newer German fighters, but it was not completely replaced on the Western Front until the end of 1917. Remaining Pups were relegated to Home Defence and training units. The Pup's docile flying characteristics also made it ideal for use in aircraf t carrier deck landing and takeoff experiments.

@SMHrubix Nice!
@ACMECo1940 @ForeverPie Thanks, but i now realize that the fuselage is too long, I'm going to repost another one but changed. This literally happens to me every time i build a plane. theres something wrong with it, then i repost the fixed version and it doesn't get any attention!
Nice
Awesome build!
@Tang0five @Stingray thanks! Did you like that I added the scope with a camera?
Bingo! What a beauty!
Great detail and cockpit! I like it.
