Hi,

Thanks guys!
I am working still with this model.
I've glue top wing to the body. It doesn't look that bad I guess. This is my first biplane, so i have no experince with them. I hope that next model will be better.




I've made engine cover and prop too.



Few parts left We're getting closer to the end.
Tomorrow I am going to make engine.
I am going to paint engine and add some extra parts as well.

Hi Lukas,

I'd say you've succeeded with your first mulit-wing! Looks spot on to me.

Neat job.

I think your Nieuport is perfect so far, so I'm looking forward to seeing how you can possibly make your next one better!!

What model are you considering next?

Coming along very nicely, dood, nice.

It's really beautiful!

I think the Nieuport 17 was one of the prettiest airplanes ever built, this color scheme is especially good looking, and your craftsmanship is flawless.

I agree with Don Boose on all counts! Excellent work.

Hi,

Thanks guys! Work still in progress.

Gene K,
I haven't decided yet. But propably it will be something made in the USA

I've made the engine. There is another problem with this engine. I had to resign from part S6 because with it engine dosen't fit the cover. It's too big.
Anyway no big deal with this part. Engine will be covered.

On the pictures below you can see the 'problematic' part and finished engine. I've painted and washed the engine using Citadel paints.



Now I am going to work a little bit with the cover. I decided to make it of 'metal'
