Italien Nie. 17 CSM 1:32
« on: October 07, 2019, 01:22:22 AM »
Hi friends,
I started Nieuport 17 in italien  markings from CSM. The "Fulco Ruffo di Calabria" decals were designed by Meliusmanu and printed by Cartograf, so excellent quality for sure (as always with CSM goodies!)

 







As usual, the CSM kit parts have excellent details:




Cockpit parts ready to paint:

and painted...











(ejector pins are not sanded because you don´t see them when all is assembled)
 






the Le Rhone 9J was easy to assemble and has pretty details




Cheers
Jörg

Superb start, wonderful wood & metal finish.
Spot on weathering on the blue parts, btw which blue did you use it looks excellent.

Cheers

Thank you for your kind comments! Hans, I used Tamiya XF 18 as base color. XF 18 is a little too dark, so highlights were drybrushed by oil color - in this case royal blue deep (Schmincke Mussini, these oil colors have very fine pigments).

Cheers

I thought that you had made those wooden boxes from real wood! Stunning painting - so realistic. I am also struck by the detail in the kit - just amazing what manufactrers are turning out these days.

Beautiful work so far, and you are inspiring me to get this kit! By the way, is your build a Nieuport 17 or 27?

Cheers,  Tom
