« on: December 25, 2020, 08:25:25 AM »
Hi all,
Here's the completed 1:32nd scale Nieuport N.28C1, Serial No.6177, of the 95th Aero Squadron, 1st Pursuit Group, operating from Saints aerodrome, France, during 1918 and as flown by 1st Lt. Quentin Roosevelt.
As usual I've uploaded a fully detailed build log on Gallery 3 on my site (link in signature).

Gadzooks! Been following this build, Mike. Just stellar- outstanding work on one of Roden's first efforts in 1/32nd! A fine tribute to an affable and talented young man taken from the world far too soon.

that's an awesome looking build, from the paint job to the rigging it's faultless.

Another spectacular model. I am especially fond of those banded double wires. Very very fine.
