Your usual beautiful results Amigo! Lovely painting and subtle weathering. Beautiful rigging. You make me want to do a Nungesser bird someday....soon  8)

Thanks, Amigo!  This is probably one of the easiest models to rig.  Only 8 wing rigging lines and the space is excellent.
I have a feeling we're going to be building a lot of these Nieuports.
Cheers,
Bud

A lovely pair of Nieuports there Bud. As usual they are first class models which look much larger scale than they really are. Off to completed models to look at some more pics.

Thank you, Andreas!  I was fortunate enough to see a Le Rhone powered Sopwith Camel in flight at Javier Arango's facility in Paso Robles during the League of WWI Aviation Historians convention in Monterey, CA, in 2011.  When the Camel landed, oil was all over the cowling and undercarriage.  I took photos and have been using those as a guide ever since.
Cheers,
Bud

It is a very realistic detail and I think I will copy this on mine  :)
