Paul,
        The Preiser figures lend themselves wonderfully for this I've been told. Good for you!

Paul,

Excellent work on four beautiful models.  The Pheon decal sheet make all the difference in the world.  Its nice to go back the smaller scale, especially after a difficult build.  Thank you for sharing.

Fingers crossed - I had a quick look at them last night and they look promising  ;)

Cheers Dennis. Glad to have got them all finished and on show at last. The Pheon sheet does have a couple more I'd like to do still on the sheet and I have another pair of kits rattling about somewhere, but am working on something else Fokker related at the moment  ;D

I've just been given some Preiser 1/72 (military) figures which look promising for converting so stay tuned . . .
I'm looking forward to seeing what  you can do with these. There are plenty of great poses that with a little conversion will be suitable for WWI pilots and ground crew.

Just to reinforce this (and to be slightly critical of Paul's photography ;)), here is a close up of the pilots in this scene that I took at the Yeovil show:



Paul's brushwork on these tiny figures is amazing!

Cheers Nigel - That's a cracking photo young fella (even my good lady could see what I've been up to)  ;D

See you soon

That is a terrific photo! I'm still hard-pressed to believe it's 1/72!

It is indeed Zac.  :o
It's lovely to see the detail reproduced that I see through the lens when painting (even my wife was impressed ;))

This is wonderful modeling in the tiny scale! I admire the figures!
Absolutely gorgeous!
The only thing I dislike is that the lacing is a product no longer available.

Thanks Joachim  ;D
Sadly the Pheon decals are also no longer available although I hear that Richard at Aviattic may be back producing them in the future . . .

 Appreciate your praise Brad - I'm currently working on a model inspired by one of your builds which hopefully will appear soon ;)
