Your rigging looks excellent to me, even the double wires. I really like how this one has turned out. Very well done Antonio.

Really nice Hanriot, Antonio.  They were certainly good looking aircraft and your models bring out that quality.

Lovely duo so far, I'm looking forward to seeing the third. What colour blue did you use for Coppens' machine?

Thanks guys, I'm happy you like my two little birdies...

I just fixed the upper wing and the cabane struts  for MIchetti's plane (the green bird) I just stopped rigging (right wing complete) because my eyes got spinning!
Tomorrow is holiday here and I will try to finish the third bird.

@IanB: I used Citadel enchanted blue 61-34.
Number 40 in this picture

if you go to first page of this thread you'll find a more detailed description of the colours I tried.

Ciao ragazzi!

These are three little masterpieces Andonio. I am not really a fan of the Hanriot but you super models has helped me to look at them again in a new light.  I am still adjusting to the fact that these are in the True scale too!

Simply wonderful is an understatement - but otherwise I am lost for words!!

Stephen.

Lovely trio! I like the lines of HD.1 and to see three of them together is a pure joy. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks Przemol, I too love the HD-1 lines and to me it's the most beautiful fighter of WW1.
Now I have three in my showcase and I think it's enough for a while, although from the three boxes I kept the pieces to make an HD2 floatplane, but not this year!

Very impressive trio, Andonio!  All are lovely and all are unique.  You should be quite proud.
Cheers,
Bud
