Nieuport XVII - 1:32 CSM - André Herbelin
« on: May 01, 2022, 09:24:35 PM »
Hey guys,

I'd like to share with you my Nieuport XVII by Copper State Models. It's in André Herbelin's markings and I had a great time building it.
I hope you enjoy the result. 







I also did a video series on the build, so feel free to watch here if you're interested: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL-hRsz7QIncSh-Gid2fK0T0yw54aq9G4C

Best regards,
Tim

That is absolutely gorgeous, Tim. You’ve got a beautifully detailed and superbly weathered project presented here. Love your photos, too. Lighting and background look very professional.
Cheers,
Gary

Great, Tim!! I also watched your video. (And then many more of your videos… 😁) Looking forward to see you more delving into 1/32 scale WW1 aircraft kits - Copperstate Models also have that Caudron…

Cannot add anything further than what has already been stated here other than outstanding!

Love the metallic look to the cowling

Got to agree with all that has been written. The oily look of the cowling is most convincing.
