Hi Dave,

Nice one! If mine turns out half as good as that I'll be pleased.

I agree that the standard of a lot of the modelling on this site is very intimidating - it's something to aspire to but probably far, far beyond my capabilities. As long as it remains an enjoyable pastime with a degree of challenge and a 'learning curve' then it's OK. If it becomes self-flagellation because one cannot reach the lofty standards of not a few here then it's time to quit.

Cheers,

GrahamB

Still struggling with a WNW DH2 - it is one step forward-two steps back. Probably trying out different things (see comment above) and not being satisfied.

Hello Dave,

I would love to see a model of Lt. August Hartman’s Fokker D VII!

The diagonally striped Fokker D VII of Jasta 30 will be, among others in the chapter “Results of new research” in my Jasta 23 book. Unfortunately I got the beautiful Foto of the Fokker D VII line up when the book was already printed.

The colours of the diagonal stripes are an interpretation. They could be red/white or yellow/white.
Why red/white or yellow/white?
The pilots who could have flown this Fokker D VII comes from Frankfurt, Lübeck or Silesia. Frankfurt and Lübeck have white/red, Slesia white/yellow.
As the pilots in question were NCO, I choose for the colours of the home.
Because my experience ist, that Officers preferred their regimental colours, NCO locals from their geo-political background

Many greetings from Bavaria

Bruno

Dave, the Roland is just another of your brilliant
models that are definitely not the humble way
you portray them. Looking forward to more of
your jewels, my friend. :)

Cheers,
Ernie :)
