Quentin,

That's great - I've built this particular kit in the past, but it was not good as yours - well done, mate!

Regards

Quentin it's lovely and you say you built it in days! Good grief it would take me weeks to even think about it and then months to actually do anything.

Best wishes

That's great... only a few days to add a very nice model your collection.

Great looking little Spad Quentin. And how about the silver rod? Did you enjoy working with it?

Cheers

Thanks all !

I did it very quickly because i mainly wanted to understand how to use rods! the best part is to paint, and i love painting!

well, it's a very efficient product, easy to cut and cement, stiff and real aspect. I have also 0.2 mm, will be better for 1/32 scale wires. i'll use 0.1 to make turnbuckles with alum tube.
So now, i can continue Nieuport work!

Thanks, it's very kind from you, but there is many defaults you can't see! and Revell kit is very poor with details!

She's beautiful, Quentin!  I love the RFC scheme and your paint job and weathering are excellent.  She's a little gem.
Cheers,
