Craig and Matt's Sopwith Pup Project

Hi

If you read this thread....

http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforums/showthread.php?73560-Craig-and-Matt-s-Sopwith-Camel-Released-12th&highlight=sopwith+camel

You will know that Craig and I have been considering another collaboration after the Sopwith Camel... we opted in the end for another Sopwith... the Pup.

I've just delivered all the parts for a production standard Pup and a miriad of other parts to allow for all the variations (to mention a few an 80hp le Rhone rotary engine and a 100hp Gnome Monosoupape engine and it destinctive cowl). It's over to Craig now... I'm looking forward to seeing things develop.

I will just state here that we are considering making this payware but we shall see.

Here are some pics for now

Looks great!
Matt, Craig, best of luck on the project! It will be an outstanding add-on for all the old wings lovers :)

Fantastic news! The model already looks superb, Matt, and I'm eagerly looking forward to seeing where Craig takes it next!

It's such an elegant design, with all of the right proportions - it just looks right, and that it would be an enjoyable experience to fly.
 
Awesome! Can't wait fly that little Pup. The Camel has been a blast. It's a good way to build some flying skills.
 
Been considering a Triplane as it has a lot of common parts with the Pup but for now I need to get back on with my latest train project.

Amazing. You've been busy Matt! Another great piece of history being made available. I love the modeling you've done. True art in my eyes.

By the way, what else do have tucked away? :icon_lol:
 
Well, I've only recently downloaded and tried out the Camel, but I have to say I've been pretty impressed with it. The Pup is probably the best WWI plane to fly (and clearly my favorite) and so given what I've seen from the Camel, I think I'd be interested in a payware Pup.

Not your bag I'm sure Oleboy, but I've got a part built F15C tucked away somewhere. The Pup is new... its only come into being in the last month or so. I put rather intensive effort into getting it done so Craig could start on its journey into FSX.

I received a first test export from Craig recently, so when he says its ok I will show you some pics. Its still untextured and un animated but it does look good.

Matt
 
Just to show that progress is being made with this project. As you can see the VC is almost complete. Completing the External textures is the next task Craig is working on. He's done a fantastic Pilot figure for the Pup that has a scarf that flaps in the breeze which is very cool (it wasn't included in this particular build) but we'll show you that later perhaps when the external textures are done.

Nice clear picture John... don't suppose you got one of the Cockpit of a Bristol Bulldog MkIIa up your sleeve? always on the look out for reference for possible future projects.
