Thanks! ;D ;D
Today I installed the rest of the decals, and right fixed with decal-fix. For the lining of the wires I have tried wood glue on the first wire. The only important thing is to take very little glue. Then wait a little, and apply the next layer. I painted the clad wires with russian green. I think it has become quite good.









Cheers,
Jürgen

Today I show you the last pictures in "Under Construction". I have brushed the model with matt varnish, and finally the windshield glued. Do not worry, the individual wires are still tensioned. As well as the weather and therefore the light conditions are better there is a rollout of the Nieuport.









And that would be the next kits from my camp:

1/72
Gotha GIII from Roden

1/48
Spad S.XIII from Dragon
Spad S.XIII from Eduard
Fokker D.VII from Eduard (Spad and Fokker are from the Limited Edition: Eduart)
Albatros D.III (OFAG) from Eduard
Salmson 2A2 from Gaspatch

1/24
Spad S.XIII from Merit

Now I only have to decide with which plane it continues.
Probably with the "little" Gotha or the "great" Spad. :)
Of course, I also build the Ninak. ;)

That's all for the moment.

Cheers
Jürgen

That is beautifully finished and photographed. I would be proud if that was mine.

Nice work! If I may say so, I do see a bit of silvering here and there under the decals. Roden decals are quite notorious for this, but I've found that putting a drop of gloss varnish (Pledge, Revell Aqua, as long as it's a gloss acrylic) helps act as a glue and prevents this. Too lat for that now, but might be usefu on that Gotha! :) That's a somewhat challenging kit, but it looks fantastic when done, and is very satisfactory. Not too many people have on of those on the shelf, built, that is :)
