Academy Sopwith Camel (1:72)
Upon opening the box, one is met with a nicely-moulded kit, the (bagged) parts are well detailed.
The instruction sheet is very simple; however it could be larger and clearer. Some diagrams are not very clear and thus may be difficult to follow.
There are colour call-outs, but for some reason, there is no painting guide.
The decal sheet is well printed, with all colours being of excellent depth, and everything in register.
You will need paint (enamel or acrylic) and glue (liquid polystyrene cement) to complete this model.
I used Humbrol paints. The colours I used are below - I have included Revell equivalents.
Dark Green (Humbrol 163 or Revell 67)
Linen (Humbrol 74 or Revell 80)
Matt White (Humbrol 34 or Revell 5)
Matt Black (Humbrol 33 or Revell 8)
Dark Brown (Humbrol 10 or Revell 81)
