Lovely job!  I like it next to the Berg.  And it DOES look like the Staaken airliner I'm building!

Very well done.

For such a homely little beast she sure is gorgeous, Arnaud!  You've done a remarkable job on such a rough kit.  Every aspect is impeccable.
Cheers,
Bud

It turned out very nice.
I know it is a dog of a model, even if it may seem simple.
I started one back in 1997 and it is still waiting for completion.

Fantastic result.

I've see the period photos of this contraption so I know it is real, but, my mind keeps trying to tell me it is something out of an anime movie.

Great job! This is such a "cute" little airplane that it would be very easy to end up with something very toy-like. Your painting, weathering, rigging, and detailing add a nice realism that makes it very believable.

Thank you all for your very positive feedback!

I disperses and I started a little too much models  :-\!

I began a Fokker D.VII without the fabric on the fuselage .... Long work.

I dare not show you.  Several topics presented on the forum that I haven't finished ...

Thank you again!

Yes, please show us the D.VII without the fabric on the fuselage. I'd love to see that.

Very nice little bug...bird I mean. Very well done.

I'm interested by your austro-hungarian camo: which technique and colors did you use to get this effect? Thanks.

Fabulous build Sir...
With my warped sense of humour i would probably thought
it was part of Dick Dastardly`s vulture squadron...

What a dogfight, this Vs an A D Sparrow scout !

Thanks for sharing your little gem !
