Thank you all Just a small update today:

Some darker color to the linen (a bit too dark on the picture, its more light brown in real life) Top is base color, bottom is final., and it gives a nice accent to the redish wood. Flash wasn't on so everything seems dark wood vs the orangy I obtained.


Here we are the proper orange! Tomorrow I'll close her up and take some shots.



and finally, filled in the huge gap in the wing with good old putty, tested it out today in silver and its not visible



Thanks all for checking it out I have to figure out the rigging thickness, usually use a bit smaller on these nieuports but might see what to do
I'll post some more pics tomorrow when I close her up

Aye your a bit Early Wayne but thats ok, here are the shots

first sealed, all that wood grainy goodness left underneath

Thanks for keeping tuned
