That is looking very nice, Sir. Thanks for the look at the earlier build, too. Some of this stuff makes you wonder how much spare time ground-crew had....

Thanks Old Man! I took the photo of the other build so I could see if the two were close on the Silbergrau! They were close enough for Government work  ;D

Thanks Amigo! I painted the black stripe and applied the fuselage cross on the Pfalz today. I should be able to continue with construction soon. The Nieuport is ready for markings but I am still deciding on what scheme to use  ::)

RAGIII,
That is a great colour combination. It really "pops" out at you.

Looks really good! Amazing how paint and markings change the appearance of a model.

The Pfalz looks beautiful Rick!  Colors spot on and crisp markings. 

I must ask though--how do you keep four models proceeding at the same time on your bench?  I can barely keep track of a single kit! :o

Best regards,

Bob

Thanks Fredrik. You are correct about how colors and markings change things. I am now at a point were I begin to actually like the build  ::)

Following both builds along, really enjoying watching you.
Great build on both kits Rick. Question though, What did you use for the Pfalz Silbergrau?

Thanks Russ! In the end it was a mix of Tamiya Aluminum and a blue grey. I don't measure...just add until I like it so I can't get any closer than that  :o

It has been a while since I updated the Nieuport 23. I finally decided on Markings. I was originally going to stay within My Squadron collections and do one from N124. I decided to go outside of My usual and do one of the Russian Options from the kit  8)
