Love it. The fluid seeping thru the fuselage side is very effective!!

 Andreas,
Your Nieuport is a work of art in progress my old friend. Her weathering is some of the best I've seen. The oil stained fabric is most impressive. Outstanding project to date.Keep up your high standards of excellence.
Highest Regards,

Rick, Ed, Frank, Manni, Steve and Gregory thank you very much for your interest and your friendly words!

That one is finished. It is a wonderful kit in every aspect.






I am waiting for some figures. When they are painted the Nieuport will get its base. To be seen in the „completed“ section soon.
Best regards
Andreas

One day i'm gonna have to get me one of these.

Excellent weathering - I really like the oil dripping from the cowl.  What kind of paint did you use? Oils, enamels, or something else?
The stitching on the side of the fuse behind the cowling looks the part also.

Andreas, you've build great looking Nieuport. I would have chosen the same marking option...

Thanks a lot Ken, I used some oils and some drops of AK Engine Oil, which is a glossy enamel color.

Thank you Edo! I glued the acetate film in the small recesses of the one window half before I glued both halves together. Went together much simplier than I had expected.

Thanks Buzby, no I didn‘t start the Halberstadt yet. There was a disease in my working room. this disease was called „of course you can build several kits at the same time“. I had to fight that disease, I am trying to get back not to a single project but to ‚just two or three projects at the same time‘, so the Halberstadt had to wait.

Brilliant outcome Andreas. I'm looking forward to getting to this kit. I will be doing the same scheme as you and this log will be the perfect reference.

Cheers
