Beautiful D.VI, Prez.  You can be proud of this one.

Stunning indeed and even more so as it's 1/72 scale. What a beauty.

Cheers,

Thank you very much, everybody for your kind words.
Gregory, the decals are from the kit - surprisingly for Roden they were very easy to place.

Thank you, gentlemen.

Krzysiek, I have tested these decals first. If they had not passed the exam, I would have used Techmod ones.

Mate, that's a lovely job you've done on an very interesting aircraft (haven't really looked at the D.VI before).  I wonder if they do one of those in 1/32?

Cheers.

Dal.

PS Roden does do one of these in 1/32- $38USD.  I don't know whether to thanks you or not! :)
