Yes. It was a difficult choice, but it's the more colourful so it won out in the end

The little Nieuport is coming along beautifully Jessie, it's great to see a build of this lovely aeroplane on the forum, looking forward to your next updates.

Nice work. I just bought one of these kits on Ebay. I'll be following your project as kind of a build review.

[Zabu]

Hi Jessie. Nice Ni you're building there.

I enjoy Ni's very much... don't know why.

Cheers

Jessie,
Sorry about the late comment, I actually though I had done so earlier    Your interior came out nicely and you are certainly making great progress! I am looking forward to seeing more!

Jessie,
   Looking great as always, a  subject that never loses it's interest. Nice to see you here, I'll be following your "Noop" closely.
Cheers,

A wee bit more done
 
The paint is pooling between the ribs; I guess I made it a trifle too thin. I'll have to give the model a rub down with a scotchbrite pad and then a gentle repaint.

[Rob Hart]

What primer did you use and how well does a scotchbrite pad smooth paint?

[jessie_c]

I used Badger Modelflex grey primer, then painted with Tamiya deck tan. I think that I may have over-thinned the deck tan a trifle. Scotchbrite pads smooth down chalky paint deposits without the harshness of sanding. I think that's all I'll need.

It all looks really good. Keep up the good work!

[Ernie]

Good progress, Jessie.  Thanks for the tip about the Scotchbrite.  That
can be useful.

Cheers,
Ernie

Polished down and repainted. Now it looks much better

Looking really good Jessie, thanks for the tip on the Scotchbrite pads.

My attempt at freehanding the camouflage could have gone better. Next I try masking...
