Fokker E.V Eduard Weekend 1/48
« on: October 31, 2013, 05:20:34 AM »
Hello! It`s finished and I must admit it was a pure pleasure to build.
The scheme is Jasta 8? - however it is not checked info. There is only one photo I`ve managed to find...
The engine is a marvellous Taurus Models Oberursel UrII.
The prop is a carved one.

I hope you like it










Best regards
Filip

Wow, Filip!  She's gorgeous!  Extraordinary job on the wing streaking.  What colors did you use?
Cheers,
Bud

She turned out excellent Filip, the B & W photos with the pilot and fuel cart look very convincing, congratulations and well done on a superb build.

Very crisp and clean build, Filip. Fine dio setting, the fuel barrel is a nice addition. I would only complain about too little rigging  ;) But it is obviously not your fault!

Wonderful job, Filip!  What a beautiful little aeroplane.  Your paintwork
is amazing and the little vignette is lovely.  Top marks on the figure and
cart.  Thanks for having us along on your build.  Well done, my friend.

Cheers,
Ernie :)

    Wonderful finish Filip. The B&W Photos really set it off and the setting is perfect. Your colour work on the wing is excellent, beautiful model! 8)

Hello Filip:

Great looking model.  The wing streaking really sets it off and you did an outstanding job on it.  The figures and fuel cart are a nice touch and the B&W photo's as Des mentioned, are convincing.

Best
