Title: Fokker E.V (D.VIII) Dragon 1/48
Post by: Naimbs on April 17, 2017, 06:08:30 PM
Hello,

This Dragon kit is pretty basic in the end. I did not really like the build. I borrowed the decoration in an old reference Eduard, as well as the wheels.

I ignored the brushing for the wing, and I regret it today.

There is still the wiring to be realized, two or three little things and it will be finished.


The frame in the cockpit is redone with evergreen

I think that this is one of the nicest DML/Dragon EV/DVIII builds I have seen! So although you "SEEM" to be only OK  on your build, I Love it!
