Nieuport 11 Eduard 1:48
« on: April 25, 2012, 07:31:25 AM »
Hello mates. It`s the first model that I want to present here and the second one from WWI I have built  . This Nieuport depicts Paul Tarascon`s plane - French one legged ace. This is a "weekend" edition without photo-etched parts so I have added: some details inside the cockpit and  to Le Rhone engine, also rear mirror, hinges, cables etc. I must admit it was a very pleasant build. Hope you like it!








Best regards
Filip

I've seen this amazing model elsewhere, xmald.  She' absolutely stunning.  The prettiest Bebe I've ever seen.
Cheers,
Bud

Wow...I really like how you weathered the fuselage etc.  Looks used but still very flyable.

Great treatment!  Keep 'em coming...Dan

Absolutely brilliant debut here! Very nice build, fine shading, realistic weathering and dirt. Congratulations.
