This makes two Roden 1:32 Nieuport 28 builds that have made it to the Feature page! I like what this builder does with his pieces. We are very lucky to have this caliber of modelers here. I am learning something new everytime I turn around.

Outstanding job Peter. It is one of my favorite WWI aircraft. The seat is fantastic as is the rest of it.

If I knew it was going to look that good, I would have built mine sooner.

Great build Peter.
