Beautiful work, Paolo.  You know I have an affinity for Nieuports and
you have more than done it justice.  Grand job, my friend!

Cheers,
Ernie :)

Incredible work, Paolo. I'm glad the decals worked out for you. Almost. It's nice to see what they would look like in the hands of a real artist.

Perfect paint, shading and decal application, Paulo!  She'll be a real dazzler.
Cheers,

Hi Paolo, this is a magnificent bird. I like the Nieuport very much and you made a masterpiece of it. I admire your skills.

thanks....

let me once again thank Lindsay for the help. I think I'll never reach this stage without him.

today was another busy day, but I managed to retail a couple of night hours to log in this build...

just some rigging,
8790

rudder and again rigging...
8787

and, finally, the circus!!! ;D ;D ;D
8794

Now he does all night under load, and tomorrow we'll see if the landing gear is straight out..
cheers, p. ;)

Your rigging looks excellent! That is certainly a daring and unique way to test/align the gear!
