Title: Roden Fokker DR1 Jasta 4 Completed
Post by: RAGIII on December 07, 2020, 09:39:47 AM
This one is finished. Roden DR1 in 1/32nd scale. Kit interior with small mods from Part PE ( ammo box) and the extra Meng control stick and early Axle Wing. Aviattic PE used for the firewall and under fuselage hatch. Meng Horizontal tail modified from the F1. I added simulated Nail heads to the ribs. Decals were a mix of WNW kits. Band painted( black decals for the trim).

I agree with Kevin: so pleased that you persevered with this after the disaster with the Meng tripe. The colours on this are trulu eye-catching and your streaking is incredibly realistic.

This is a very, very nice result from the Roden kit, Rick! I hope mine turns out half as good... very convincing colours.... ATB, Marc.

As others said, great model!
I like best the streaking and the overall weathering, which looks very consistent.

Cheers,
Frank
