What a fine colourful model. Congratulations, Dave.
 One doubt, is it just me - in the front shots the span seems to be too large when compared to the wing gap. Or am I completely mistaken with my proportion feeling for D.VII?

Lovely Dave..

Really nice to see this kit come together.

Now, if only Wingnuts did a 1/28th kit..   :D

Sorry but I am catching up too. That is avery fine model - very many congratulations. I am extremely impressed with your brushwork - I also use a hairy stick and I would like to be able to achieve your standard every time. It looks like a D VII to me too - I did not know that Revel had produced this kit at one time. Like their 1/72 scale models there is clearly a huge amount of potential in this kit - well worth building.

Excellent work, Dave.  Those D.VII's have some very interesting schemes and you nailed that one.

Good stuff, mate.

Dal.

Thank you, gentleman -

Prez - you may be right (I really don't have a clue I'm afraid) but like I said earlier - yes, the kit has some errors (the most obvious I corrected) but on the whole a superb kit - certainly looks like a Fokker DVII to my eyes - plus you you get a really large model to boot.

Regards
