Your Fokker and the Photos are gorgeous! Well Done!!!

PS: With the PC problems I am having it is virtually impossible for me to Post anything but Thumbnails that must be clicked on. I am trying to work out a feasible method to post. Until then I won't add more photos of my DVII.

Truly extraordinary D.VII, Guy!  I enjoyed following your build thread and it's brilliant posting it here.
Cheers,
Bud

Two absolutely gorgeous Fokkers, Mark and Petrov!  Mark, your build motivated me to by the Eduard 1/48 OAW kit and the Lifelike Decals sheet for this ship.  I love this scheme and you did a phenomenal job with it.
Petrov, I bought the Roden kit with the intent to biuld "Du Doch Nicht", but the complete lack of photographic references caused me to go with Monnington's bus instead.  Still, you did a truly remarkable job on her.  Great work, guys.
Cheers,
Bud

Thanks Fella's, duly appreciated.  I just stumbled on this section of the forum.  Where has it been hiding?

It is amazing that one can visit the forum often and still find a section you have not noticed...or forgotten! I have done this myself. your Fokker is Beautiful! I have said this before but I will repeat my statement here. There is something about the color yellow and Lozenge that just looks Great! Throw in the blue and cool personal markings and the scheme you have done is very ATTRACTIVE!

Petrov,
A very Lovely work! This aircraft looks great in res/white stripes( how I will always see it), but it also looks cool with black and white. One just needs to toss the dice and go. Your rendition of the aircraft is AWESOME!

Hello Zabu:

Nicely done DVII.  I really like the Bolle Scheme.  I almost did it in 1/32nd.  Still might.  Thanks for posting.
