Towards the end I had a bad run with this build . After breaking off the landing twice I ended up losing my mojo and wanted nothing more . Well it was time to get her done and off the bench instead of just staring at me , taunting , teasing me with a bit of name calling .

I'm calling this one done . I don't like how the prop decals turned out and will be redoing this feature at a later date . Over all it's not bad kit ever with the issues with the struts she builds up nicely . In the end though I rather build the roden kit .

Terri,
Nice finish on the fokker! Wish I'd been around to watch it unfold. Now im just binge watching model builds like its on netflix ;D This One of my favorite D.VII schemes and I'll definitely be building one for my own collection. I like how it shows off the lozenge over the whole a/c and topped with simple black and white markings. Thanks for sharing!

She's gorgeous, T!  Whatever issues you had with her, you overcame them with style.  I agree with Mike on the scheme and finish.
Cheers,
Bud

Hi Terri!
Looks pretty nice. At first glance I thought it was the WNW kit!
I'd love to see some more photos...
Ciao
