Toby's Great War effort pt4. 1/72 Esci Nieuport 17C.FINISHED

A World War One GB - any subject, any scale, 1914-1918 - this is not a 1914-specific GB.
Runs 6 weeks, July 28th to September 8th, to allow plenty of time for biplanes, rigging, and holidays.
Your GBL is Chris, assisted by jRatz.

I did a base coat of Vallejo natural wood and then used their transparent wood grain as the top coat. It looks better in the flesh.
