Thanks Richie. There is still a lot to do before they are done  :o The next one will almost certainly be the CSM Nieuport 23.

They are looking wonderful Rick!  I can picture the finished models now.  Beautiful and dramatic! 

I must ask (although you probably answered pages ago) what you use for your gloss coat and how you apply it?  It really looks good.  Thanks.

Best,

Bob

PS: I tend to go between two gloss coats. My Old Standby of Future/ Kleer and Valejo Gloss coat. I think I used Future this time  ::)

So this will be the last update for at least a week as I am Leaving tomorrow for California. My Son is getting Married and Love waits for No Pandemic  8)
I have added the Vickers to all three SPADS. I used what I had so all are slightly different. Luke has Gaspatch Barrels from the Aviattic set and Stephen( Lone Modeler). Rickenbacker has Part PE barrels added to the kit butts, and Guynemer has Modified Roden Nieuport 27 Vickers.

RAG III,
The trio are looking great! Have a safe and uneventful trip (except the wedding, of course) and I'll be standing
by for the next update.

There is something fundamentally amiss with a society which forces it's modelers to work for a living.

That are really three beauties, I don't know which one I like most.
You made a perfect job so far, I can't see a fault.

Cheers,

Three beauties in the making!  I love that they all look so different!
There are only two states to be in:  Queensland and blotto.
