Nice build. I sure like the color job and accents that he used around the control surfaces, it adds a very realistic touch to the model.

Very nice Huckebein.

I built the larger version myself a while back. The colouring is very nice indeed. Only problem I had was with the landing gear. The main gear is widely spaced out and on an angle to boot. Mine collapsed after a couple weeks. Had to rebuild the gear then decided to fly it from the roof just in case.

Thanks for the compliments. I agree yoteman, the paint job on this model is fantastic! I'll keep that in mind about the landing gear on the large size version. Maybe I will build it as a flying model. Right now I'm putting the finishing touches on a Sopwith Pup biplane.

Possm, did you get that word from a Geico commercial ? :lol:
WII, I haven't tried the Nieuport 28 yet. The Pup was pretty easy. I think the hardest part was getting the top wing at the right angle.
