[WWI] Nice Nieuport

[Douglas Anderson]

Actually I rather liked the dirty look. I did think it overdone, but then a machine at the front would probably have been dirtier than I would have the guts to make it.

Nicely done, too bad it was on the "too dirty" side. I wonder what
was
intended to represent with the slanted "pipe" on both sides of the
cockpit
interior. Anyway, it is a good model and the modeler has sharp skills, even
if he looked a bit thin on actual references on Nieuports. The Lewis gun is
a jewel!
What do you think of the placement of the chevrons on the wings? Wouldn't
be
correct that they were angled "inward" instead of this
"outward" as the
modeler used it?
Thanks for the link. I need to look to as much more nieuports as possible!
