Meng and Roden Fokker DR1: Jasta 4, Jasta 6, and Jasta 11

[Fvdm]

Nice to see them both side by side. I have one question,  the elevator of Jasta 6 is up. Is that possible when the plane stands on the ground?

Excellent progress Rag, that Steinhauser scheme looks really cool and creates a nice contrast with the camouflage. You got yourself a truly unique Dr.I here.

Best,
Tim

If the stick is back yes.

These are two very colourful Dr 1's Rick. You seem to be able to find some very interesting schemes for them - and they are all new to me!

Rick, you are not a modeller, you are an artist!!

Thanks for all of the comments. They are appreciated! I haven't done a lot due to the Holiday but did manage to add the lower fuselage panel from the Meng kit to MY Roden build. I also painted the CDL background for the lower wing crosses. Finally I painted the eyes on the cowling. Still some tweaking needed  All of this is on the Roden Jasta 11 bird.

The face on the cowling looks great. I could easily believe that that was achieved with transfers.

That will be a very colorful scheme, Rick.
Happy Holidays

Thanks Stephen. Just a small amount of touch up needed on the brows

and the end of yesterdays' session: Both have feet and I added the crosses to the lower wings and rudder on the Rodenstein kit:

It keeps getting better and better. The MG's look great. Maybe a little touch-up to do on the black and white wheels?

[lone modeller]

That pair really are some of the most colourful Dr 1's that I have seen. They are both stunning.

I think I missed a few steps along the way.  That is amazing progress.  The paint finishes look gorgeous to me.

Thanks for the comment and yes, a bit of touch up needed on the wheels and elsewhere

Thanks Will. I have now painted the "New" upper wing of Kirschsteins bird. I just need to decide which I Like bestter ?  Both are "Off" just a tad from what I envision as correct

Amazing progress, Rick! And a lovely contrasting pair of colourful triplanes! Really well done on some adventurous schemes... and don't ask me which upper wing is better, I wouldn't know! I think you need to decide that.... Enjoying these builds very much! Marc
