Here are a couple of shots of Montex's 1/32 resin Gloster Gamecock, which will be appearing in a forthcoming issue of Military In Scale.

This is a great kit packed with detail, and I reckon it looks every inch the classic inter-war, silver-winged biplane.

The model was pretty much built out of the box, with a few minor additions and alterations. It is not without its problems though, the main being a pretty generous upper wing dihedral which I left unchecked, and gave me all sorts of problems when fitting - basically the wing broke in two!

There are no decals. Instead, a stack of masking material is supplied which modellers will either love or hate.

Montex's 1/32 scale resin Gamecock is not a biplane for beginners, but patience will be rewarded with a great looking model.
