Title: Eduard 1/72 Dr1
Post by: DaddyO on June 12, 2022, 09:55:58 PM
Following on from my thread about the build for this one here are a few pictures.
Prop is carved from plywood (a la Prze. Thanks for the hints and guidance)  :D

Everything else is as per, although I did sand all the struts down as far as I dared (too far in the case of the wing ties which resulted in a rather embarrassed purchase of a second kit just for these) :(

Superb Fokker. I have not seen those markings before - I really like them. The streaky effect of the fabric is first class.

Thanks RAGIII (i was surprised to see that there is a full sized replica flying with them) ::)

Lovely little fokker!
Sandy

 ;D Thanks Sandy

Cheers Stephen. I liked the streaking effect so much I've been searching for a 72nd Fokker DV to add them to (one of my favourite aircraft ever since I saw a powered freeflight version appear in Aeromodeller many moons ago)

Cheers Zac. It's a slick looking scheme in the flesh and something a bit different from red  ;D

Great inspiration, as usual.  Thanks!

Thanks you Rick. It's partly seeing the stuff posted on here that got me started again  :)

Well done, wish I had done half as well on mine when I came back (and then left :) ) the hobby.

You're most welcome! And it's a TVAL-owned machine, so you know they did all they can to get the scheme right!  ;D

Great work DaddyO - as I said in the build thread, I do like the way you've achieved that Fokker finish. Well done, sir :)

Very fine results on this little Dr.I. One of the best streaking effects I have seen in this scale. And I am glad I could help you  ;)

That's very kind of you to say PrzemoL - I really appreciate it.
I've been showing your prop making ideas to some local friends who have all been delighted with them. I've already made a Garuda style one for the earlier V3 which is on teh workbench at the moment (first bit of the model I've finished)
All the best
Paul
