Finished 1/32 Roden Fokker Dr.I
Hello everybody!

It took me much more time to finish it than I expected but here are some pictures of my 1/32 Roden Fokker Dr.1. The model depicts the machine, Fok. 486/17, flown by Ernest Udet (and previously by Ltn. Kirschstein).

Thumbs up
Beautiful! I went through your thread over on Aeroscale and your detail work and painting are fantastic. Your finish is flawless.

Can you elaborate on the materials, colours and techniques you used to achieve your Fokker streaking? Also, how did you make the piano hinge on the scratch built underside panel?

So many questions...

Cheers,
Tony

Very nice build!
Yes, I very much like the engine's metalic finish not to mention the streaking!

Salute,
Steve
