Nieuport X Special Hobby 1/48
« on: August 03, 2014, 12:06:01 AM »
I'm going to make a model Nieuport X.
This is the third part of my project called "The Three Musketeers". It lasts a few years, but I hope that this year will be end  :D
For all the help Thanking you in advance, will be very much needed.

The model is simple, but many of details need to earn some extra.
The first report soon !

I built this one a couple years back, Jacek, and loved it.  I'm going to really enjoy watching you work your magic on it.
Cheers,
Bud

Thanks for the link.

The first step:
I removed the incorrect elements in the cockpit and replaced with new.









I suggested this photo:



Photo from Windsock DataFile 68 "Nieuport 10-12"

I have a question:
whether stair helps to enter the cockpit was somehow closed ?

Hello Jacek:

The surface detail on the plastic looks pretty clean and sharp.  This will be a fun build to watch as you progress.  Already you are making progress.

Best

Looks great, Jacek.  May I ask what brand & color you're using? Your interior linen looks like one of my old favorites- "Butternut" from the Floquil Railroad Colors line.

Thanks for the information, Jacek.  When it comes to paints and brands, it's good to have options.
