von Mertens,
    I really hope you will add your ideas and directions on Fokker Streaking to the Thread mentioned by RAGIII. The streaking on this particular model is superb, probably the best I've seen and I'd really like to learn more about it.
Cheers,
Lance

Сertainly I am glad will share with you the technology, but most likely workshop will be for this purpose necessary. I want to show you my experiments with paints in scale 1/1, in comparison with the original. I used the real canvas and original pigments... from this there are my paints for modellers 






N.B. I want to pay your attention that this is not about imitation of a shade, but about give a definition of right pigment

I really like your Dr1, von Mertens, and the way it is displayed is fantastic! A Great model!
Regards,
Marc

Simply gorgeous, Sergey!  Your streaking is the best I've seen. 
By the way, I know this is off topic, but what Drooling Bulldog paints would you recommend for The Albatros D.II three color camo?
Cheers,
Bud

Hi Bud, for the upper surfaces the paints you need are Caput Mortuum (http://www.droolingbulldog.com/products/caput-mortuum/), Chromoxide greed (http://www.droolingbulldog.com/products/chromoxid/) and Blassgruen (http://www.droolingbulldog.com/products/blassgrun/), for the lower surfaces the Blassblauer (http://www.droolingbulldog.com/products/b-l-a-s-b-l-a-u-e-r/).
Many thanks for you interest in Bulldog paints and feel free to ask in case of any further questions.

The DB paints really look great, as does the Alby!

Not seen this one before - must have been away when it was posted. That is a first class model and an even better diorama. Congratulations on a well deserved award for this. An excellent example of modelling and presentation.
