Very nice work on the fuselage.  I really like how you can see the paint brush marks in the aluminum dope on your sample photos.

 Xan,
How did I miss awesome project? Outstanding progress to date my old friend. I do very much appreciate your work on the French colors. Personally I've never been too happy with most available French WWI paints. Thank you very much!
Highest Regards,

Xan,
Giuseppe has said it very well, this is how a Build Log should be done ....... great research, fine detail, and a superb result! I also echo Greg's comments on the French paints, very informative and already stuffed away in my bookmarks for future reference!
Cheers,
Lance

Brilliant build and log here. Your colour analysis of what paints to use is top notch - very interested to see the effect on the AI

I went on with the paint. for the camo, I used the oficial specificaiton ooooof Morane Saulnier house. the same drawing learn is intrados was painted in silver.



here is the result , quite psychedelic:









I put a varnish coat and now, last but not least, I have to cover with a coat of very diluated rub in white spirit...

Extreme good paintjob. The colours are perfect chosen. They bring a lot of depth and live to the surface.
