Thanks! Unfortunately, Snoopy won't fit into the cockpit, not even close... So I had to build his trademark hut to "fly on". Fun fact: in reality it would be not so comfortable to sit on the steep roof, and my toy Snoopy had to undergo quite some significant surgery (don't think about it...) until he had a firm sit on the roof 🙂

I was defeated twice towards the end of this build: first by my blatant lack of rigging skills, second by the said Academy decals which did not cooperate even with copious amounts of decal softener 🙁

Academy's own decals is infamous. The best ever move that Academy have done is to link up with Cartograph.

I practiced my surgery skills (first tested with Snoopy) on the reluctant decals, with mixed success. But I call it a day and stop 🙁

Album info
The base is from a (new?) company called Diosockel... I initially planned to have a Fokker Dr.I with Snoopy, but I guess the only decent ones are in 1:48 which is too small in comparison. So the Red Baron serves now more as an "inspiration" for Snoopy on his Sopwith Camel and the real one...
