1/32 CSM Nieuport 11
« on: March 16, 2025, 11:31:59 PM »
Dear all,

This kit given to me for a Christmas present from both my sons.

My first Copper State Models kit and I was not disappointed by the quality and engineering of the kit.  This is CSM's latest release of the Nieuport 11 - this one being the early variant. 

I know there are quite a few completed (excellent) examples of this one on the forum now, but this is obviously my take on this particular one .......

Brush painted in the kit option marking for Nieuport 11 N.557 of Escadrille N.12 pilot unknown.  Complemented on base with one of CSM's figures - this pilot undertaking a check of his 8mm French Ordnance 1892 service revolver prior to flight.





























Regards

Dave

Great to see another one built, you did a really nice job on this Dave. Great choice of scheme which you pulled off really well. Excellent presentation as well, that is always a very nice touch.

That looks like a true winner to me Dave. As usual the finish is first class and the figure adds a point of interest. Looking forward to seeing this one soon.
