Title: 1/72 Arma Hobby Fokker E.V
Post by: Rip Van Winkle on November 13, 2021, 08:01:49 AM

Finally finished something. Arma Hobby Junior kit Fokker E.V piloted by Hans Goerth Marine-Feld Jasta III. The only Fokker E.V I have ever built. Overall kit was good. The machine guns were poor but I could not get after market guns to fit correctly. Fuselage decals from Peddinghaus.de. Fuselage decals from Aviattic were great to work with.  I had to cut templates and then fit the decals. I adjusted the wing struts as I felt the wing was too high.

 I did not realize how small it was compared to other fighters.  Paints used were mainly Vallejo acrylics with underside purple a mixture of AK German lilac and Magenta.  I will someday build another.

Hi RVW,

I'd just like to add my compliments and say that you've created a beautiful model. I've recently started one of these Arma kits, and if it turns out half as nice as yours I shall be well pleased! Great work!

Kind regards,
Mark

Very nice! I built the Roden one ages ago, and it is tiny indeed! Great work!

Super work on your model of the Fok EV

I've built this kit myself in the past and also thought it a good model to put together.

Regards

Dave

Thanks for the nice feedback.  Currently have a Sopwith triplane and SE5a begging to be rigged.
