Thank you, Warren, Kevin, Nigel and Vickers !
Now it's the turn of the bracing. This time I used grey rigging twine with a diameter of 0.1mm. It looks similar to steel wire and is easy to attach with superglue.

 
 

 
 

There is still a lot to do, more photos soon

Cheers
Joerg

Nice progress Joerg, that's looking really good. I've never seen that material used for rigging before, where do you get it from?

Thank you very much, WD, Nigel, Todd and Sandy !

@Nigel:  if you are interested in the rigging twine, have a look at takelgarne.de


The machine gun and tail spur are now also fitted

 

 

After a coat of silk-matt clear varnish, the model is now ready. The Nieuport will later be on display as a tabletop model together with a CSM figure and a <<baraque Adrian>> that my friend and forum member Malaula designed and gave me as a present. But more on that later.
More photos soon under completed models.
Cheers
Joerg

That looks very nice, Joerg. I am keen on seeing the finished model with its figure and its home.

Simply beautiful work all the way 'round, and one of my favorite a/c too. I'm looking forward to see how you base it and the figure.

Many thanks for your kind comments, Andreas and Warren. Figure and <<baraque>> (by the way, this is accommodation for the crews and not an aircraft hangar) will take a while yet.
