Models By Marek, Nieuport 17 c.1, 1/33

Hi!

Welcome in my new Report.
The model that I am going to make is French fighter from WW I, Nieuport 17 c.1. Model shows plane used by Imperial Russian Air Serice.

I bought this model at Zarkov Models and it was designed by Marek Pacynski (Marek) in 1/33 scale.
If you wanna get this model this is the direct link: Nieuport 17

So, in the box we have 3 A4 pages with color parts. Model doesn't seem difficult if you wanna make pure standard. There might be some problems if you want to upgrade and enhace parts.
As always before work I covered the pages with clear matt Varnish.

And when it comes to my model, I am going to make it a little bit upgraded

I started with cockpit and the equipment there. So far I've made pedals, clock, switch, gear and seat with belts.
All the parts are painted with Citadel colors. I've changed a little bit the pedals, gear and seat by adding extra parts.

Here's small comparison between autor's project and my upgrades according to renders and photos of Nieuport's original cockpit.
