I will start this but I hope others like Bud, Brad, and Mark, to name a few, will show their excellent 28 builds in all scales!

What a beautiful piece of work Rick.it really looks the part and I find that camouflage pattern so pleasing to the eye.

Hello Rick,
Seeing your Nieuport again, I can only dream of such a finishing. Your paintwork is awful as are your decals and rigging. It's a very nice scheme with the Screaming Eagle. Wonderful build Rick, one to be VERY proud of. Congratulations!
Kind regards
Patrick
-
A very striking colour scheme which makes this model really stand out, you have done a superb job with the painting. The rigging and every other part of this build is excellent, congratulations and well done.

She's a beaut, Rick. Your build is a good reference for anyone
wanting to build one of the Ni.28's. Good work!
Cheers,
Ernie :)

She's a stunner, Amigo! As I said when you finished her, you did a remarkable job masking and painting this gorgeous scheme. Makes me want to build another. It really is one of Roden's best kits.
Cheers,

Beautiful Rick, a real "stunner"! I may have to move my recently acquired Kit up the Build List................

Patrick,
Thanks! I had to underline the quote assuming it was a Misspelling 8)
That being said, I think your build will equal mine in all ways!

I'm sure you've all seen mine: the Revell offering in 1:72 with substantial improvements (I hope!) including Aeroclub prop, wheels and guns, major reworking of the cowling including opening up the front and the cooling openings and reprofiling the curves, and a scratchbuilt axle assembly, carb intake and venturi tube.
If I was going to do it again, I'd fill the panel lines on the nose and rescribe them a little thinner!

teeny scale. Very well done!
Cheers,

Ian, I thought you had this one in your completed Models but couldn't remember for sure so sorry I didn't mention your build! That being said I am glad you blessed us with seeing this Beauty again as it is one of the Nicest 28s in any scale I have seen!

Ian, very nice model and I like your colors very much. Nice detail in this scale. Well done!

O Rick what a misspelling indeed. You know I meant "awfully nice". And I will have to live long to equal your wonderful build. Sorry for that mistake my friend, it wasn't my day I guess.

Special thanks to Rick for starting this thread with his excellent Nie. 28 and Ian for showing his 1/72nd masterpiece. I always liked this airplane and must do more. Here is my Roden 1/32nd in Quentin Roosevelts markings using the "Aeromaster" (I think) Decals.

And just for humor, my Aurora/Glencoe 1/48 Nie 28. This pretty much got me back into WWI A/C modeling in about 2006.

Beautiful Nieuports Mark. Wonderful paint work. Is the blue-striped cowling
painted or a decal? It looks super!

Thanks Ernie:
If I remember correctly I painted it on, as the Glencoe Decals had a tendency to peel off once applied. I plan on doing this in 1/32nd.
-
Mark, I remember your 28 build of the Roden kit and it hasn't lost anything over time! Beautiful work all around! Again I must say how much I like seeing the old Aurora/Glencoe stuff done to a high standard!
RAGIII

Hello Mark,
Wonderful build once again. If you painted the engine cowling, then this is quite an achievement. Great workmanship. I think I will do mine also in the Quinten Roosevelt finish. Many congratulations my friend.
Kind regards
Patrick

Hi Guys:
Just to clear things up a bit, the red and blue stripes on the Aurora/Glencoe kit were painted on, the Blue stripes on the Roden kit for Roosevelts a/c are decal included on the sheet. Thanks for looking and all of your kind words.
Best
Mark

You guys can make wonders no matter the scale. Awesome models. Congrats.
Cheers

G'day.
I feel a little hesitant posting my (almost-see below) completed N.28 here. Rick, Ian and Mark have done beautiful models. And I'm always gobsmacked at how well Ian, and the other 1/72 builders, do their models.
Anyway, as with Ian's build, mine's of Rickenbacker's "12" (I believe this is Rick's favourite scheme :D ) and it's the Roden 1/32 kit. I had a lot of fun with this, despite some self-induced problems. But more importantly, getting this done has raised by confidence levels a great deal. I'm no longer worried about rigging (I'll probably strip down my Pfalz and re-rig it, using the techniques I've learned) and actually enjoy it.
As you may have noticed, the windscreen is missing and so is the seat cushion. I don't know where they've escaped to, about the only place I haven't looked is down the sewer pipes. I can build a seat cushion again very quickly, but I'll need to find a drawing of the windscreen to build another. Once that's done, I should find the missing items.....
I'm still experimenting with doing the slatted rigging, but I'll leave this model's rigging as is. That's two completed, two in progress (SPAD 13 and Sopwith Tripe) and 26 more in the stash.

Dal,
Your Nieuport certainly turned out BEAUTIFUL! Your perseverance with the fitting of the wing and rigging resulted in an excellent build!
RAGIII

Absolutely beautiful Dal, through all your trials and tribulations she turned out to be a real gem, I love the scheme, the Nieuport 28 certainly is a lovely looking aeroplane. Congratulations on a wonderful build resulting in an excellent model.

Lol, posted this in the wrong place, let's try agin...
Very nice Dal, the slatted wires are effective!

-
That is a beautiful Ni.28 Dal! ;D Very easy on the eyes. :D Great job my friend! Inspires me want to build a bunch of these! ;) Thanks for sharing this gem.
Cheers,
Bob
-
Hello Dal,
Your Nieuport is absolutely magnificent and the way you solved the problems were very fine and inventive. Your build log was very inspiring to me. Many congratulatopns on a beautiful build.
Kind regards
Patrick
PS should I make a scan of the windscreen and send it to you?
-
What a lovely piece of work Dal. I'm so glad that you persevered. Only the French could have come up with a camouflage scheme as chic as this and doesn't the Nieuport carry it beautifully!
Best wishes
Nigel
-
Beautiful Nieuport, Dal. The paint is gorgeous and you have really excelled at
the rigging especially the slatted rigging which is absolutely wonderful. Well done, my friend!
Cheers,
Ernie :)
-
She's absolutely "top drawer" Dal. As you know you inspired me to search out a Kit and a bunch of A/M stuff to do one in the near future, seeing this again draws that project closer!
Cheers,
Lance

Ian, Mark and Dal! Outstanding additions to this great thread.
Cheers,

Hello Dal:
Great job on the 28. I like the "wrapping" on the riggin, nicely done and to good effect. I also like the scheme you chose. I know it very popular, but for good reason. This is one of Roden's better offerings and you did a great job on it. Hopefully we will see more here as well.

Very nice collection of Nieuport 28's. I will add an oldie but goodie, this is the Aurora /KB boxing from around 1972? It is one of my first WW1 models built in the early 1990's, and my first attempt to add detail, I scratch built the interior, and added an Aeroclub Gnome engine and guns. Decals were from the kit but the posters on the wings were added later from a Lone Star decal set. Shows how far the hobby has come in the last 20 years or so.

Nice work Mark, Dal, Patrick and Dave. More very nice 28's!
Dal, that slatted rigging is incredible!
Good to see that Lone Star got the posters correct (at least according to Datafile information) in that upper and lower wing posters were both full sized. The old Revell 1:72 kit has the lower wing one as half size, which was correct for Jimmy Meissner's machine.

As I have said I really enjoy seeing these OLD kits built to such Beautiful Standards! Well done!!
Brad, This is perhaps the finest 1/72nd Nieuport 28 I have ever seen built. Your correction work, additions, and as always your painting are superb!

Dave and Brad, you've both done remarkable work on a couple old classic kits. They both look like much newer releases and, Brad, yours looks much larger. Congratulations to you both.
