Title: Nieuport 11 1/33rd Scale from Marek's Models (A repaint by Sergey Vlasenko)
Post by: NinetythirdLiberator on February 24, 2025, 03:58:56 PM: Hello All,

Here is my latest paper model. A really pretty Nieuport 11!
Lots of little additions like the gun cable, fixed the prop and aileron bellcranks. I also added some airbrushing to make it look a bit more "used" and some "see through" on the fuselage structure. Splatters were added in several places too since I figure if these were light or clear doped, the caster oil and mud on the field would have left a few marks. I ended up using the kit prop but I beefed up where the blades mate to the hub with putty so they don't look like they are just paper. Now they look more like an air screw with a helix component. I love the Lewis gun too. All in all, a really pleasing build.

Thanks for looking!

Dan

Post by: lone modeller on February 26, 2025, 01:49:15 AM: Your paper models look better than many injection moilded/resin kits that I see built! Are you sure that this is paper/card?

Outstanding example of the use of this medium to make superb models.

Stephen.

Post by: NinetythirdLiberator on March 02, 2025, 04:02:28 PM: Well...the support from you guys is overwhelming. I do appreciate it! Paper is such fun to build with and these WWI types are just made for it.

More soon. Perhaps a Halberstadt or old LVG...

I'd love to find a nice model of a Nieuport 28, though!
