This project began in 2006 and quickly discouraged me.
Roden is barely fits. The last problem I had yesterday by mounting the upper wing. Well, but somehow we made it work to finish this project after years.Carl Degelow biography

So glad you decided to finish this beauty, Jurek!  When I saw your last post in the build log, I thought it was the WNW Fokker.  The Roden Fokkers can be a little discouraging.  I've got one on the bench that I set aside until the burnout wears off.
Cheers,
Bud

Stunning results with a kit that is by no means a shake and bake! Your engine compartment, Lozenge, and overall finish are gorgeous!

Congratulations Jurek on completing a not so easy to build kit, your results are remarkable with a really nice looking model, I love the exposed engine.

The figures are very well done! They add a great perspective to the kit!
