Nice subject:

I did this in 1/32nd using the Academy Nie 17 kit. I am looking forward to see how you proceed.

thanks, guys
let me proceed

Greetings Oleg,

Forgive this but your seat looks too far back. Pilot would have a broken neck just trying to fly.

Here is a "normal" Nieuport XI forward fuselage.

yeah, my mistake , thanks Stephen. I'll replace it after painting

Wow, even in Stephen's photo of the real one, that seat looks to be at a mean angle. I wonder why? I can't imagine the pilot being comfortable in flight atitude, especially in a combat.

I really like the work your doing, Oleg.

in Ukraine and Russia we have a very funny joke "Chelyabinsk's men are so severe, that they can break the metal urinal by their own stream" (I hope you'll understand the meaning of this joke ) and I think that the pilots in WW1 were also "very severe", that they used to fly on such planes

the model is completed

Hello:

Nice Bird...!!! Very Inspiring... congrats...!!!
