Fokker D.VII - WINGNUT WINGS

[szymon]

Hello friends after a longer break, I present some pics of my new project. I added a few elements from each other, and also sets of HGW (seatbelts, photo etched) and GasPatch metal turnbuckles.









Best regards

Beautiful work, Simon.  You have done a superb job of the cockpit, fuel tank,
copper tubing etc.  Your talents are obvious.  I look forward to your next
updates.

Cheers,
Ernie

Outstanding modeling Simon!  One of the best D.VII pits I've seen yet. . How did you do the brass grommets and cord on the fabric barrier behind the seat?  Looks very convincing.

After building a D.VII myself almost a year ago I can truly admire the beautiful job you have done with this interior. If you just have a look at the pictures you don´t really realise how small this all is. Astonishing. Can´t wait to see the follow up.

Absolutely brilliant work Simon, the cockpit interior is a work of art and I love the way you have the fuel tank filler cap off, superb craftsmanship. The GasPatch turnbuckles and the HGW seat belt certainly adds to this stunning build.

Wow Simon, this is just beautiful work. I think that the colour you've used for the tubular metal frame is spot-on. Was it your own mix or did you use a proprietary brand?

Best wishes

Hello Simon:

Outstanding work on the cockpit.  Very convincing and realistic looking.  I like the opened fuel spouts, nice touch.
Looking forward to more updates as you progress.

Wow Szymon! The cockpit is a magnificent example of the "modeler's art"; now you've produced an engine that is well beyond that! This is truly outstanding work, it's simply beautiful and although it's only starting we see a real winner emerging already. My compliments on a great start and first class work, I'll be watching this Thread very carefully.
Cheers,
Lance
