Post by: The_Magnificent_Squadron on April 25, 2022, 07:34:12 PM

Another project i completed, A fokker DVIII (OAW) Finished in the Seven Swabians scheme supplied from Aviattic decals. This shoot was done was a black background though i went back to a white one for most projects after.

Beautiful DV.III.  Nice clean build.

Love the colour scheme and the Seven Swabians. 

That Grimm story reminds me of the Killer Rabbit of Caerbannog scene in Monty Python...

Lovely photography as well!

Excellent DVII. Subtle shading and well done decal work. Thanks for sharing.

Lovely model, nice clean and dramatic.

I always wondered why Pirates always called people "Swabs" as in "Avast there, me hearties, ye swabs!" Think I know now.

Excellent model in every way. The 7 Swabians really is an interesting scheme.

Personally I would build that which most appeals to you - in that way the enthusiasm does not wane so easily.

That's gorgeous! I do enjoy seeing a well-done Fokker D.VII, and this is very well-done!

Great looking build. But as you, I do prefer two-seaters over the fighters.  ;)
