Hi everyone!
After dithering on this scheme for a while... like over a year..., I've finally decided to begin before somebody else does. Building a model that is unique is important to me at times. So, I've chosen this scheme:
After many hours of research and a few timely pieces of information from friends here, I'm ready to proceed.
The base for all of my labors is the WNW Fokker D.VII (Alb). I don't know if the plane is built by Albatros or not. But I am told that an expert believes that some of the cowl parts have been replaced with OAW pieces. This gives me a little more individuality.
I began last week. I started with the engine. I'm not going to hyper detail it as only the top will be seen, anyway.
Inspired by the guys who have begun to fabricate their own props, I looked for materials. I considered both paper and laminating balsa. Then I realized that I have 32 WNW props with perfect proportions. And I have a Silhouette Portrait. Surely I must be able to do something with them. I'm too cheap to buy perfect AM props.
Here are my results.
If you think any one of them is better than the others, please let me know. I'm quite undecided.
I'm looking forward to sharing this journey with you.
Happy modelling!
