Beautifully done!
Good luck with the 28 - the Revell kit needs quite a bit of work to get it reasonable, but it's do-able.

Cheers Ian. Seen a couple of articles about dressing the 28 up, but will be doing something different next  ;)

This is beautiful.

I just began work on my Roden kit and seeing this is an inspiration.

Many thanks  :)

I really like Roden kits in this scale (not tried any of the larger ones) They don't necessarily fall together in the way that some others do, but are nicely detailed and look the part when finished. They can often be picked up for a few pounds at shows which makes them excellent value for money (not that they're expensive even at list price) ;)

Good luck with yours (I really must make a 24 and Bebe at some point)

I can only confirm this opinion on 72nd scale Roden kits. They are very fine, though not shake-and-bake. Having built almost all of them I can say, each of them was a pleasure to deal with and they form a lovely collection together.  8)

Please note, however, that Nieuport Bebe is not from Roden - there were some versions (11 and 16) produced by Toko - also lovely ones.
