Sopwith Camel B2543, Hellenic Naval Air Service 1919.

-I was not lucky with the lacing. Although eduard provides an extra right hand fuselage part for a different type of lacing, B2543 was a rather rare case of having the lacing at the left side. An old PE lacing set by eduard (72393) saved the day. I removed the molded lacing from the right side and superglued the PE lacing to the left. 

-I used the plastic kit part for the clerget engine, I replaced the push rods with 0.18mm steel wire and added spark plugs and wires (wires are 0.06mm fishing line, plugs made from polyamide tubing). 

-Most kit plastic parts for the eduard Camel are imho a better choice than aftermarked PE, resin or 3D printed accessories. The instrument panel is better than the PE or the 3D printed if you invest some effort painting it. I used the decals provided for the instrument faces. The 3D printed seat is a bit better than the plastic and much better than the PE at a reasonable price, so this is the only aftermarket part I used. 

-Engine painted (alclad). Ok, it not Small Stuff, but it is good enough for my standards 🙂 

-Added the fuel system parts, filter and plumbing made from copper wire and brass rod. 

-Instrument panel assembly. 

-Parts ready to disappear forever in the fuselage 🙂 

Tailskid part, copy made from brass 

Tailskid painted, control wires added 

Fuselage closed. I replaced the gun handles with the supplied PE ones, better scale appearance. Rh part of fuselage had some mold flaw, required a bit of putty.
