All I can say is wow, very nice build.

i love the way it looks like the upper wing hit the hanger roof with poor parking.

Very cool Alexis! Beautiful silver finish and a very unusual looking Nieuport. Fascinating visual image, and you have carried it off very well.

Best regards,

Bob

after my eyes have a break .

Alexis, not only your eyes need a break - that bird looks so unusual due to the special arrangement of the wings, that I need to look at a normal biplane for relaxing

Well done!

Cheers,
Frank

It's a beauty, Alexis.
Such an odd design.

Very, very beautiful, Alexis! It looks so funky - but I do like your silver and the really neat and clean modelling... ATB, Marc.

I am like Frank: I too needed to look carefully to see that you had not somehow made a mistake! I too like odd ball types but this one is truly very odd-ball! Super job on this Alexis - looking forward to seeing it finished.

Happy New Year Alexis,
I look forward to this build's next progress report. You've inspired me to dust off an Eduard Nieuport 21 from my stash as my next build.
Your cockpit has given me quite the standard to meet. That will be my stating point.

Hello Kevin ,

You know a build log is now expected since you mentioned it and no ...not an archeology disection of the dust layers

She is finished !
