Finished off some Spad VII kits I'd just left in their basic markings previously and redid a few loose WoW Albatros DVa models that had been gathering dust. Not the best pics I'm afraid, just used my phone.

Very nicely done.
Nice job, that got me thinking how great 4 planes look. The problem is now I'll have to get 4 of everything.
Cheers,

Nicely done!
Very nice, great paint jobs. Who makes the kits?
The Spad VII models are from Skytrex.
How have you found their models? I purchased a SE 5a kit from them some time back and was pretty unhappy with it. Many of the bits didn't line up properly, or were poorly molded requiring me to make them myself (such as the cross spars).
There are a couple planes I would like to build/have (such as the Nieuport 28, and the FE 2b), but am unsure I want to trust Skytrex again (on a different note, the Air200 from Noble Miniatures, 1/200 scale minis for WW2 are great, I have a P51, P40, Stuka, Hurricane, and others from them).
Charming set of aircraft. If only I had the room for large flights. I only have Jasta 11 and a flight of Camels and SE5's. All the rest are the single models and I'm running out of space.

I have built a Skytrex Nieuport 28, and have a couple of unbuilt ones as well. Not a bad kit. Requires some clean up. There is a small mistake on the cowl that is very hard to fix, so I hid it with the prop. I made my own cabine struts as well, not too hard that. I like that Skytrex kit.
Well done. They look very good.
Nice ones. I have roughly a 60/40 split official & Skytrex. Will post pics soon to let oyu see. From Skytrex I mainly get models not yet available from WoW
