Fokker Dr.1 Roden 1:32
« on: February 26, 2013, 07:22:59 AM »
Now is time to show some pictures of my Fokker, it is my first work in  1:32 scale.
Many thinks here was new for me, big scale, painting with masks, it was very difficult, but here I acquire experience for building next airplanes. Now I'm planing to do  next work in this scale, it is Nieuport 24 Bis, but first I have to finish some kits from Vietnam war it is second part of my modelling so for some time I will observe here yours works my friends.















































Supporting actor is Revell Fokker Dr.1 1/72 scale.

I do not like Dr.Is. But I surely respect quality builds, and yours is definitely one of them. Very impressive, Adam.
And I am also looking forward to see your work on Ni24bis.

Hello Adam:

Very nicely done!  The kit does have some fit issues and you seem to have overcome them all.  Looking forward to seeing your Nie. 24bis.

You certainly know what I think about her already  but I may repeat myself. I love the way the streak camouflage turned out. The rest of the build keeps your usual high standards. I`m really looking forward to your next build!
Congrats mate!
Best regards
Filip

We are very glad that my model you like.
Przemol, Fokker is not my favorite aircraft too, but many modelers have recommended it as easy to build.
Now I'm slowly  gathering materials to Nieuport. I think this time Part will prepare PE elements. I also know that Taurus Model is working on the engine, so I'm hurry.

Adam.
