Description: Another superb Wingnut Wings kit offered for sale from my collection, this time a 1/32 Bristol f.2b (postwar). A labor of love by filmmaker and aviation enthusiast Peter Jackson, the research and planning that went into Wingnut Wings' kits was almost unmatched, and the kits are well-regarded by modelers and World War One historians alike for their quality, engineering, detail and accuracy. Perhaps the only thing they failed to do was offer their line in smaller scales. Wingnut WIngs' web site was still up last I checked, but you can't actually place an order with them any longer (though I recommend you download their instruction booklets, which are chock-full of photos, detail, color data and information). With luck, perhaps we'll see these kits produced again one day, but until then Ebay and the odd hobby retailer with a remaining supply are your best bet for acquiring one. Released originally in 2009, Wingnut Wings' kit of the famous "Brisfit" was issued as a postwar version with additional new parts in 2015, The kit includes a small selection of photoetched parts and beautiful decals from Cartograf of Italy with markings for 5 f.2b's from the 1919-1920's era. You can find the entry about the kit, with copies of the instructions as well as pictures of the decals, sprues, and completed examples of the kit, on Wingnut's web site here: http://www.wingnutwings.com/ww/product?productid=3096 A beautiful and inspring example of the completed model, built by Michael Scott, can be found on LargeScalePlanes here: https://www.largescaleplanes.com/articles/article.php?aid=2696 I really kind of hate to let these kits go since they were so highly regarded (and still are) but I'm getting older and recent life and family changes have impressed on me how short time is, on the one hand, and how large my collection of unbuilt kits is on the other. I bought this kit from my LHS a few years ago when they were having a clearance on the last supplies of Wingnut Wings kits. I opened the kit to examine the contents, but the parts remain on the sprues and are undisturbed in their original plastic bags, as can be seen in the accompanying picture. The kit, like the others I offer, has been stored safely in my climate-controlled basement. Obviously, all the sprues, decals,accessories etc. are still in their individual packaging within the kit and remain undisturbed. Although favoring the more experienced modeller, the kit is reputedly an enjoyable build and makes an attractive, accurate andwell-detailed replica when completed. All purchased kits are very carefully packed in clean and sturdy materials so that my customers remain happy and my conscience untroubled. I can ship domestically via US Post Office ExpressMail. I can ship internationally, but I will invoice for shipping in that instance.
