Looks great, the shading on the cowling is really pretty. Wheel covers look the part too.

Wow, Brad!  That was FAST!  And she turned out so beautifully (no surprise, there)!

You always ask for criticisms, and I can never ever think of one. Exquisite as always Brad.

Wonderful job, Brad.  The shading is beautifully done and looks just
right under the lozenge. You make everything look so easy, but I guess
talent does that.  Amazing work, my friend.  I will hurry over to see the
finished model. Thanks alot for sharing all your work! :D

Cheers,
Ernie :)

Very nice. Ilike the looks of this. What font did you use for your serial number? Is there one for WWI German aircraft available somewhere?

Great work.  How did you paint the wheel covers?

Thanks guys!

nmroberto - All except for one of the wheel covers were decalled in lozenge. The port outer wheel cover on this aircraft came from an older Fokker-streaked finished wheel, which I did with oil paint and the wheel mounted on a small electric drill, spinning at low speed.  It took a few goes to get the effect I wanted :)

I would guess you'd have to spin it at a low speed or end up with speckles of paint everywhere.  I've discovered that most paint doesn't taste too great.

Wow ! great build . I love the way you've done the decals process. The result is fantastic.
I am a poor decal player and your skill is very inspiring. I need to try !
I have a question about the softener used : is a microset / sol and have you make a varnish before application ?

thanks for your comments
