Title: Fokker M.7 1/72 Classicplane vac
Post by: Tim Mixon on October 30, 2022, 06:59:07 AM

A relatively recent completion is the Classic Planes vaccuform Fokker M-7. The M-7 was a further development of the M-5 monoplane which eventually developed into the “Eindecker”. There were only 20 M-7 built and the majority were purchased by Austro Hungary and redesignated as the B-10.
My machine is one utilized by the Kaiserliche Marine (Imperial German Navy) as an observation aircraft. Many sources have the overall scheme as medium grey color. I liked the idea of clear doped undersides but this may be fictional.

Nice! I have the Classic Plane vac kit of the M.7, it's quite crude and you've made a very good job with it.
I'm still hoping to find the HR Model resin offering with the '101Kiel' markings.

Tim,

You dealt with the notorious Classic Place 'pips' quite well.  Tough to find them all and sand off.  The engine cowl really catches the eye.
