Hello :-)
« on: November 26, 2015, 05:59:05 AM »
Hello everyone,

I'm Jeroen,aged 37, from the Netherlands, and been building WWI planes for a few years now. I'm not building them exclusively, but there's always one (or more!) in progress. Most of my stuff so far is exclusively 1/72, but there also a few WingnutWings and Roden 1/32 kits waiting to be built.
I'm currently working on a 1/72 Roden Albatros D.Va and Fokker D.VII (OAW) that will recieve some Jasta 18 decals from Pheon.
Some other, older, stuff:

Roden Gotha G.II


Roden Fokker E.V


Encore/Roden Albatros D.III (Öffag S.253)


Less then stellar Roden Fokker D.VII

BTW, all of these models have a build review on ModellingMadness.com.

I hope to open a build thread on the Jasta 18 duo sometime soon, and hope to learn a lot of new things here -and obviously watch other modellers beautiful models! :-)

Best regards from The Netherlands,

Jeroen

Hello Jeroen and welcome to the forum. It's great to see your very accomplished models. My hands and eyes don't cope too brilliantly with 1/72 these days - so it's 1/48 or 1/32 for me now, but I was still looking at a Roden Gotha a couple of weeks ago and wondering how they turn out.

Best wishes
Nigel

That was quick -thanks everyone for the warm welcome! :)

My first build log, though it is a bit of a re-post so far, is up, but obviously it'll be updated until the models reach completion -and they use Aviattic 1/72 lozenge :)

Regarding the Gotha, the full-build review is on ModellingMadness at this link:
http://modelingmadness.com/review/w1/ger/koeng3.htm
It's been a few years since I built it (and it was only my second biplane...) and I would do many things different now, but there's always my G.IV kit to do that with. All in al, despite being relatively complicated, it was a far more enjoyable built then the Fokker D.VII, which took me 4 years on and off, until it was rescued from the pile of shame...

Hi Jeroen, it's Warren/dixieflyer from the 72nd Scale Air forum. Great to see you here!  Be sure and post a link to your Albie & D.VII build so these folks can see it.
