Finished with a couple of exceptions. For instance I forgot to paint the Tailskid  :-[ and there is silvering on the Tail stencils.

Simply gorgeous, Rick!  Excellent work from beginning to end, 'cept for that pesky tail skid.  Brilliant job rigging and painting her.
Cheers,
Bud

Bravo Rick! Superb job. It's been a joy to follow the build from start
to finish.  My efforts should turn out so good.  Thanks for having us
along for the ride.  Now about that tailskid... ;) ;D

Cheers,
Ernie :)

A very stunning model Rick, the painting, rigging and overall finish is superb, this plus a few other builds have inspired me to grab one of these kits, congratulations on a brilliant job. (I won't mention the tail skid  ;))

Rick,

I really like this one. Great job on the finish too. The grubby tires stand out.

I do not like Ni-28, but watching your model is slowly begins to like  :D
I like very much camouflage colors.
Now I'm waiting for the next model, whether you know what it will be ?

Thanks Jacek! In My Opinion the Nieuport 28 ranks with the Albatros DV/Va as one of the most beautiful looking designs of the Great War! My next project will be a WNW Fokker DVIIF, Erich Lowenhardt, Jasta 10.

Des,
Thanks, from a modeler of your talent the comments are greatly appreciated! I am glad that Dal and I have been able to inspire several Modelers to add this kit to their build list( although I am certain you will take the kit to a level I can only imagine)

Rob, thank you for your comments! As for the "Grubby" wheels, I tried something an old friend used to do on his Armor Models. I mixed some real dirt in with a carrier and spread the muddy mix on with a brush. Still need to perfect the technique!
