@CatholicFlyer, while it looks like there is some effort in it, I would venture to say that it looks like it needs work. so I am just going to offer some constructive criticism. Basically looking at the airframe it needs a stronger wing and a more aerodynamic fuselage. So what I would do is first spend some time and watch this video on building Flite Tests bi-plane model
Then having watched that I would check out the plans for the model and see how they accomplished the folds.

This should help with fabricating a fuselage and the best ways to make it smooth and symmetrical.
So now moving on to the wing, I only see two problems 1 is the size relative to the body. and 2 is the spars/braces. The spars in particular seem a bit strange, by the looks of it they are a bit small and close together and would cause a ton of drag. what I would do is I would use either foam or craft sticks, and build 2 rows of spars to a side, each row containing two spars so there were four total. And remember, we all learn somewhere, when I built my first mustang I had to scrap the fuselage once and rebuild the tail completely.
Also I am not the most experienced in building airplanes, while I have built several FT scratchbuilds, I am just now starting to design my own. I hope this helps and best of luck with the two bi-planes, I think the Nieuport 24 needs a C pack if kept at its current size.
