Title: 1/32 WNW Fokker D.VII F "Goring"
Post by: Ryan on November 23, 2019, 01:03:16 PM

Hello builders, this kit recently arrived at my door step and I couldn't wait to dive in. I'd like to try something different and actually build this one step by step as the instructions dictate. Normally I would jump around within a kit and loose focus. Each step shall be a completed model and we will cross them off as we go.

So here is step one, let's begin.

Reviewing the rigging diagrams I started drilling out holes.

More soon, the weekend is just beginning!

I'm looking forward to following on with this one. My Goring kit should be here tomorrow and I'm pretty sure I'm doing it as his. Making that white paint job look interesting will be a good challenge. Have fun.

Hmm,following the instructions,I should probably try that sometime for a change.Actually,that's an interesting point about keeping focussed,at least with well thought out kits like WNW.

Are you ever going to actually finish a kit Ryan?!  ;D

Funny, but I hardly look at the instructions either.. I jump around all over the place!

Are you doing the all white Göring?
