    Default My Nieuport 17 contest entry: Dorme's N1720

    This was my first time building a Skytrex kit and the first time rigging a kit in this scale. Overall I was happy with the result and learned a lot. Decals were from Dom's excellent N3 Cigognes sheet. Obviously someone else had just as good as taste as I do.

    Fantastic job on your first effort. That was not an easy model to build. You have to do a lot of cleaning, cutting and moving to get it to look symetrical and smooth.

    My Guynemer would love to fly with your bird anyday.

    So many nice details there! I wouldn't dare to make such a repaint. Rigging is awesome!

    Good work, Brian!

    You drill a screw into your Nieuport? I wonder, that the model survived this...

    A great effort and I look forward to seeing more entries from you in the future!
