This is an early British fighter/recon plane of WWI.  A very unique and interesting design that is more difficult to build and rig than your usual WWI aircraft.

Hope you like it.

Well, with this build I did find what I feel is an easier way to rig biplanes - paint bristles.  The only change I'd make would be to use a darker metallic rub-on medium.  

Thanks for looking,
Mike

I sold on my Eduard 1:48 version of this one, as I felt at the time I wouldn't be able to do justice to the rigging, so for you to have done this in 1:72 I think is amazing!!  Airco DH-2 - Pegasus 1/72 1705482731  Airco DH-2 - Pegasus 1/72 1705482731

Your idea of using paint brush bristles is great and I might even by another Eduard version now.
