Recommendations for 1/48 Rudolf Berthold Fokker D.VII

[KiwiZac]

Hi all,
When finances allow I'd quite like to build Berthold's famous red-and-blue Fokker in 1/48. What's the most accurate and affordable (value for money) kit which comes with these well-known markings?

Many thanks!

You need Roden kit #415 Fokker DVII ( Fokker built, Early)which features this scheme among the marking options.

Thanks Dave, that was easy! I’ll add it to my Scalemates wishlist and keep an eye out for it. Thank you!

Zac, if you don't find it, and as the Roden decals are sometimes problematic, there are also other options.

You could take also any Eduard Fokker D.VII kit.
And may be decals (leftovers or so) from other kits? e.g.
https://www.scalemates.com/kits/eduard-8047-pfalz-diiia--106677 (opt A, contain 3 decals, both directions possible for one side)
But I don't know if they fit on the D.VII (but don't kill me if not)...

There was also this kit, but I do not know details about it:

I would use Aviattic lozenge anyway.

Cheers,
Frank
PS: Good decision to build in this scale
