Fokker E.III (1/72, Eduard)

The model depicts the aircraft flown in 1916 in Turkish Air Service by Lt. Hans-Joachim Buddecke.
Comments and criticism are welcome.

Thank you, gentlemen. I am glad you like it.
With the last photos I have tested my brand-new macko lenses. They are very fine but sometimes I have an impression they do show too much.

Hello, Przemol,

An excellent build: well done! I have one of these to build, eventually, and yours is excellent motivation.

One question for you: what did you use for the rigging?

Thumbs up

That is some beautiful build on the Eindecker. I have a rubber powered flying model kit of this plane and it's on the list awaiting my attention. I will use these excellent photos as a fantastic aid in finishing the model. By the way your photography is excellent an outstanding use of macro lenses and terrific lighting---Congratulations---you should take great pride in your work. Doc.

Thank you for your attention and nice welcome.
For rigging I use elastic thread from black stockings.
