Nieuport 11 1/33rd Scale from Marek's Models (A repaint by Sergey Vlasenko)

[NinetythirdLiberator]

Hello All,

Here is my latest paper model.  A really pretty Nieuport 11!
Lots of little additions like the gun cable, fixed the prop and aileron bellcranks.  I also added some airbrushing to make it look a bit more "used" and some "see through" on the fuselage structure.  Splatters were added in several places too since I figure if these were light or clear doped, the caster oil and mud on the field would have left a few marks.  I ended up using the kit prop but I beefed up where the blades mate to the hub with putty so they don't look like they are just paper.  Now they look more like an air screw with a helix component.  I love the Lewis gun too.  All in all, a really pleasing build. 

Thanks for looking!

Dan

There's no way you would think that is paper, it's just done so well!

Lovely job, that turned out really well. I like the weathering and the overall finish. It's hard to believe it's a paper model!

Well done, Dan. Another bit of paper magic from your bench.

Gorgeous work Dan! As others have said, folks would be hard-pressed to see this was a card model at first glance.

Wonderful! Convincing wheathering.
But with an unchanged cowling....

Your paper models look better than many injection moilded/resin kits that I see built! Are you sure that this is paper/card?

Outstanding example of the use of this medium to make superb models.
