I agree with all the above - looks great. All these lovely Nieu's being built at the moment!! They make me want to dip my toes in a non-WNM pond.

That is a magnificent model - I have never been a fan of the N28 but seeing yours I am beginning to think again. If I do attempt one it will have to be in God's Own Scale for reasons of space, but I can feel inspiration coming on.... Thanks for showing.

Hello, RAGIII -

Simply brilliant!!

Excellent job on one of Roden's better 1/32 scale kits.  Are you going to paint in the tailskid?

Regards

Dave

Thanks for the comments! Like I said to Des, I am glad that Dal, Myself and others have inspired Modelers to build Nieuport 28s. It is a Lovely bird!!

As I said before, Rick, that's a really beautiful build, mate.  I know what a pain it can be to set the top wing, so I'm doubly impressed with yours.

dal,
Thanks again. The wing is tricky I guess, rethinking my assembly. I mounted the upper wing to the cabanes then attached the interplane struts. The only difference I note on your build is that you secured the rigging before attaching the upper wing. Could this be the difference? IDK!

Excellent work RAGIII and thank you for sharing the photos.

What is the outside diameter on the wheel?

What is the OD on the tyre?  and

What is the OD on the little canvas wheel cover if you don't mind my asking?  Just curious

Happy Landings
Steven
