Title: CSM 1/32 Nieuport 17 early
Post by: gbrivio on April 07, 2019, 03:57:24 PM: Hallo, here are pictures of my finished CSM Ni 17 early (I still need to arrange a proper photo studio ::) ). It's my first 1/32nd WW1 aeroplane completed and to paraphrase Des it was a learning experience. I have a late model Ni17 at first stages and an Albratros D.V started over two years ago standing by but first of all the LVG C.VI for the group build.
About this livery has been taken fromMarc Chassard monography on Ni17 and was one of the mounts of Paul Tarascon, I add a picture of the original taken from the internet.

Ciao
Giuseppe

Post by: lone modeller on April 08, 2019, 05:38:51 AM: The spinner on the model reminds me of red nose day! That is a superb model - studio photos or not - it oozes quality in every way.

Post by: gbrivio on April 08, 2019, 06:48:58 AM: Thank you Stephen for your kind comment. In effect, the "cone de penetration" with flag colours was the decisive detail in my livery choice.

Post by: gbrivio on April 09, 2019, 07:00:30 AM: Thank you Lance, it's a great fun building the larger scale: not easyer, feeling the need for more details, but really relieving for eyesight and merciful for handling.
I think it will become my favourite.

Post by: kensar on April 10, 2019, 12:25:00 AM: It's great to see it finished, Giuseppe. The 'cone de penetration' certainly makes it interesting. Also the lack of national insignias on the top sides I believe, is unusual.

Post by: pierrelm on January 13, 2024, 06:22:07 AM: Wow!
I've come very late to this party.
How were the individuak markings details achieved?
Wonderful work - I've been searching for decals for this a/c for a while and have not found anything - I'd welcome your advice

Post by: WD on January 18, 2024, 04:14:21 AM: Beautiful work! One can never have too many Noops! Tarascon is such an interesting character too. I do love the early birds in this series.

Post by: Scoodydoo92 on October 12, 2024, 06:04:45 PM: I see CSM are releasing a figure of Paul Tarascon which would be the perfect match for this build. I was wondering where did you get the decals from, I've had no luck finding them and I would love to do the same scheme?

The figure...

Post by: P.P. on October 19, 2024, 04:33:47 AM: That is beautifull work. Other than that I love this aircraft. It?s a pleasure to see it done so well.
