Hello guys and gals,

a small update for my Fokker. The rigging in nearly complete, I broke one line at the tail and will have to re-do it, but otherwise rigging is complete. I have to finish the wheels, airspeed indicator (got the gaspatch one) and few small details here and there. Then I will call this one ready. Here are the pictures, any comments, constructive criticism or questions are more than welcome!

Best regards,
Sasho

Simply beautiful from the painting to the soaked in oil and spatters, to the rigging!

You have done a beautiful job with this build.  I'll be thrilled if my Eindecker comes out anywhere close to this.

Congratulations,

Chris

Hello Ssasho:

I like the way this turned out.  You did an excellent job on the weathering, oil spatter and the swirls.  I am presently in the throes of doing this one before i head to the GB.  Looking forward to seeing you post this in the completed builds.

Best

Sasho,
    Wonderful work on the weathering, your oil spatters etc are beautifully done. There's been some incredibly good modelling done on this Series here of late, and this one is included at the top end of the pile! Well done.
Cheers,
Lance

I've never been much of an Eindecker fan, Sasho, but, damn, if I don't want to build one now!  Beautiful work all 'round.
Cheers,
Bud

For my taste far too little rubber on the rims, but the rest is excellent ...............  ;D
Very good work, Sasho!!  ;)
Good idea with the 1/32 gas patch turnbuckles on the pylon.

This idea I will use shamelessly at my E.I.

Catching up on my reading.  Sasho, you have a superb model here.  I am an
Eindecker fan and yours is wonderful!  Thank you for explaining many hints
