That's a beautiful scheme too. I hadn't seen it yet on a finished model, just in the WNW manual. You may not be satisfied but it looks good to me.

Just one tiny detail perhaps: shouldn't you give the step and the handles at the bottom of the fuselage some paint  ;) On other modelrailway forums I am called a rivet counter, so don't be alarmed.

regards,
Ivo

They are painted (grey-green).  Must have been the flash or the lighting in the room.  And I am my own worst critic; I have delusions of someday being 1/10th the artist that Des is  ;D

It still looks blooming good to me, mate -

I also had problems fitting the MG's to my Fok DVII as well!

Very nicely done, Carlos.  I love the scheme, too.
Cheers,

To me, the classic D.VII scheme. Very nice.

That scheme looks like a flying acid trip!

A nicely built acid trip, mind you.

Sorry about my misinterpretation. Good lighting of pictures is difficult; I experience thesame problems. Still an excellent D.VII!

If it is not your best, it must be the fault of the subject. Do yourself a favour and build something with real rigging!  ;)

Very nice build, very colourful, nicely executed. Only the subject aircraft does not appeal to me at all ;)

Agreed.. The Snipe is next, then the Hannover (have to take a break from the Lozenge!!!)...

Very Nicely done.  I like the scheme more, now seeing it on the finished model.  I think it looks great.  Don't kit yourself, the Hannover is chok a block lozenge, unless you opt for the Powder Blue trainer.

Best
