Fokker D.VII "Blume" 1/72 Eduard
« on: June 14, 2021, 10:52:06 AM »
Weekend Edition..... This is my first D.VII kit built, it's a lovely kit, there's little to rig, the decal options endless and has given me some foreknowledge to tackle the next one differently. There's a couple of builder faults and the process I followed to decal is not one I care for at all; it was a test with a new product.

I cannot see any builder mistakes! I can see an excellent Fokker - and a new colour scheme for me. Looking forward to seeing more of your models in future.

Thanks everyone for the comments.  I just started my second, that being a Profipack version with resin engine.
