Auto Credit Based on captainhall's [CLOSED] World War I Challenge

The “Brisfit” is a personal favourite of mine from WW1. A childhood airfix model of mine just recently lost its top wing so I decided to immortalise “A1 of A flight” for the SP community and as an entrant for this challenge.

I know there is normally a gunner position with a Lewis/twin Lewis gun mounted however I have run out of time and decided to go without. This was a bit of a slog to make the deadline for this challenge but I hope it fullfills a low part variant for people to enjoy!

    Well it’s all very much appreciated! Unfortunately my main tool for building was my iPad but it’s old and struggles with big builds or parts over 300. Got a few things unfinished - I’ve broke them down into tail/wing/nose and can build them on my iPad but it’s a slow process. Any period of aviation of particular interest to yourself? @ThomasRoderick

    @Tang0five The biggest question is why I haven't upvoted them yet or why I haven't followed you when they came out...
