1:32nd scale Phonix D.I
« on: September 22, 2024, 12:39:14 AM »
Hi all,
'Lukgraph' 1:32nd scale resin/3D printed.
Phönix D.I, Serial No:J.12 (previously A.110), operated by the Austro-Hungarian ‘Kriegsmarine’ (Naval) from Abwehrflugstation Zaule, Trieste, 1918.

As usual my website has a PDF build log (on Logs page 1) covering this model.

Mike

Perfect work in every detail. The fuselage, engine and linen cover on wings are stunning. Thank you for the photos. Regards, Paul

Brilliant work. Congratulations on another landmark build of a rare and little known type. Your painting and finishing never disappoints. As always, I feel inspired by what you have achieved!

Very very nicely done. The linen, the autumn leaf, the details, all topped by those striking KuK Kriegsmarine colours.

This is an absolutely great job Mike. The detail is very crisp and I love the meadow effect the plane sits on. PS: sorry about the 'paper' comment in the build section, that was a bad senior moment of mine.
