CSM Nieuport XVII
« on: November 03, 2023, 12:56:19 AM »
Finished this CSM NIEUPORT XVII. This was my first attempt at a biplane and my first try taking photos with an DSLR. Please let me know what you think and how I can improve.

Regards,
Lou

That's a great looking model, Lou.
As I always say, "You can't have too many Nieuports".

Excellent model, Lou.
Great to see an Italian one for a change.

Nice Noop. Just enough weathering. Your pictures are fine.

Great job Lou, IMHO. You managed to make aluminum dope look varied and interesting, something I know I'll struggle with on my current Nieuport builds.

Looks great. I'd appreciate higher res photos so I can better admire your handiwork.

Great job, Lou, and great photos as well. And as someone who's wrestling with a Nieuport kit at the moment (not by CSM!) I appreciate it more than I otherwise might ;)

What's next??

The aluminium finish is as good as I have ever seen on a model. That is a model to be proud of - not one to criticise.

Your Nupe looks very promising but I would rather see photos with a better resolution.
