Fokker Eindecker 1/48 (Eduard)
« on: July 14, 2015, 05:26:28 PM »
Hi,

I show you the model I am currently doing.



The model is superb. I read too late that the forms were not very accurate (especially wings) but it's too late for me.







Then, painting is carried out





The hardest part is yet to come!! ;D



Best regards

Arnaud

This is looking mighty impressive, Arnaud. I particularly like the finish you've achieved in the last photo.

Best wishes
Nigel

You are doing an amazing job with this build Arnaud, the fuselage painting looks superb, well done so far.

Brilliant work, Arnaud!  The cockpit looks fantastic and your paint and weathering are truly top notch!  I know I'll be using yours as a reference when I get around to building one.
Cheers,

Fantastic work, Arnaud!  Your painting and shading is excellent. I am wondering
how you painted the cowling "turned aluminum" effect?  I am looking forward to
your next updates. :D

Cheers,
Ernie :)

Simply gorgeous, Arnaud!  What paint did you use for the wings and fuselage?  I really like it.
Cheers,
Bud
