WNW Fokker EIV - NOW COMPLETED
« on: August 21, 2024, 01:50:17 AM »
As I've finished the Pfalz DIIIa, there's still time for me to squeeze in another build in memoriam of Dave. This time it will be a WNW Fokker EIV, built OOB as 638/15. The onbly additions will be the excellent Aviattic EIV "feldgrau" decals, designed by our very own Dutch (great job!). I'll also be using some GasPatch turnbuckles.

Here's the box shot proving that I haven't started the kit yet. Hopefully this one will be quite quick.......

Really looking forward to this, Nigel, it's a beautiful kit. Which set of decals are you going with, the mixed, or all Feldgrau?

Mea culpa, mea maxima culpa... guess in my enthusiasm I missed that part.

Either that, or it might have been that second gin & French after shutting down the assembly line for the evening. :P
