Congratulations! This looks fantastic. The RFC Nieuports always interest me, so this is a real treat to see. I especially like the weathered look, as the RFC machines often look quite grimy compared to their French or Italian cousins. And the excellent base is icing on the cake!

Thanks Guys, I appreciate all of the comments! I do like the Dirty Look on this one. I was lucky that someone posted a bunch of photos of Bishops Nieuport 17 on FB which acted as an inspiration

Very nicely done Rick, and a most fitting tribute! The heavy weathering is a difficult challenge but this looks every bit the part. Nice work!
Cheers,
