Hi Terry,
The fact that I have only just come on this thread is beyond comprehension----when did it start?
Your pencil work looks spot on to me, remember that other exponent of pencil pictures of W.W.1 aeroplanes Leonard Bridgman?
As a long term Sopwith Pup builder and fan--I respectfully point out one thing which is not 'Pup'----Your rendition of the lower cowling (side shield)looks very much like the Shuttleworth 'Pup'----was this your 'original model' so to speak?
The Shuttleworth 'Pup' was never really a 'Pup' but a 'Dove' and as such inherited lot's of non standard bits-----wrong stringers aft of Aluminium---and wrong Aluminium side shields being the most obvious----which I see in your sketch----------unless i'm wrong mate!
Dave.
