Another airbrush session. One more and the camo is done. The underside will recieve Alclad aluminium. I have an idea for the base. It will recieve a Willy’s jeep with all the AM i can find and resin figures. A US map of the Oberpfaffenhofen airfield (Munich region) will be the base.

Exactly. This is the technique is used before any other and one I sometimes go back to. Takes a long time, but much more control.

More paint!

Getting there. Slow going...

here you go!

First paint. No pre shading or primer. Let’s see how that goes.

Yes we do!!

I hate masking.

Thnx! I guess Installed the rear instrument panel. Front pit Revi (Quickboost) and windshield. Still masking the canopies..

Added some duralumin decals to the inside of the gunbay doors. These are from MDC but they kept breaking up. Might get some fresh ones if i decide to do the inside engine doors as well.. Also worked in the rear pit instrument panel. This was a short shot part so i scratched half of it.

Impressive joint work! That should do it..

As you can see the projectile is exactly the same as the mk108. It’s just the shell that’s much longer and therefor holds more punch.

Finally managed to source a complete mk103 round. In this pic: Mg FF / Mg 151 / mk108 / mk103

Started masking the front canopy. I might scratch the inside tubular frame from very thin rod.

some more paint on the wheels, gear doors and props.

Perfect!

Very nice. I was always hoping Wnw would release the whole Nieuport range, but this looks amazing just the same!

Home stretch. Loving this!!

I used the excellent mr hobby chrome. Also did some work on the wheelhubs. Some reference show them to be black. Some rlm02.

Very cool idea to replicate the ruptured skin.

More paint on the gear

They turned out great!

Yup! All inert. Finally managed to find a complete mk103 round. These things are very very hard to find. Found one at a militaria dealer in Germany. Where else?? Costed a few pennies but worth it because i’ve seen them go for way more. The price on mine was 100€ in case you’re wondering. At the same time also bought a few complete MG FF rounds. First paint on the gear legs and doors with a little modulation.

So the four mg151 20mm rounds arrived. The four belt links that fit them are on their way. The mk103 round I’m still looking for and seems hard to find... in the photo you also see a 20mm flak round, a 30mm mk108 round and a mg151 20mm round.

Dryfitted the wings on. Perfect.
