Hi all,
In memory of 'Des', I thought I'd like to attempt a double build, consisting two Fokker D.VII aircraft and two figures.
A complete 'skinned' Fokker D.VII - Wingnut Wings Kit No:32027.
A 3D printed 'Aviattic' 'Skeletal' Fokker D.VII from 'ShapeWays'.
Anthony Fokker figure from 'Aviattic'.
Photographer figure from 'BlackDog Models'.

Very promising build, with the terrific skeletal and the figures is going to be something huge!

Hi all,
I'm making a start on the 'full built' Fokker D.VII.
Cockpit items (not yet completed) and flight control rigging and cockpit frame cross bracing.

Speaking of blind, I glanced at your avatar and thought it said old and blind!!!!

I'm the one who is blind, what a moron.
