Thanks guys for the positive comments  :) I still doing the detail painting and hoping to have it finished this weekend depending if my cold will work with me instead of against me .

Great job so far. 

I know what you mean about having to adjust to wearing glasses.  Since I got back into the hobby a year or two back, I have been trying to adjust to my changing eyesight.  It's been a real challenge.

Hi Terri,
Nice work so far.
The engine and cowl turned out nice as well.
I must admit I tend to use 'Alclad' black base then Duraluminium for metal work, which I find gives a nice finish, especially for adding chipping effects etc.
I've not started my CSM Nieuport yet, but seeing yours, Buds and others I must start it soon,

Thanks guys for dropping by and having a peek  :) It's amazing what being drugged up on cold meds will lead someone ...

I did get some bench time over the weekend between many , many naps ! Almost finished up with the detail painting , few more bits here and there . Weathering for the most part is finished and just neat seal it all in now .

Truly magnificent work, T!  Love your various wood tones and your weathering is brilliant.
Cheers,
