What a beautiful Fokker, one of the best I've ever seen! Could you tell us something about your finishing secrets? Did you use the salt technique to get that finish?
Best wishes

I thank You Colleagues! I am very glad that my work is pleasant to you. On this model, I really used a salt method as a final layer :)

I truly don't know what impresses me more, the base/display  or the model. Both are Magnificent!

Once again I want to thank you for your favor to my models! It for me is more than hobby, is Passion and as I am an artist, each model, as a picture for me... ::)

I am glad you finally decided to share your work on this great forum, Sergey!

I saw the Sieben Schwaben D.VII live at one contest and have to say this is one of the most magnificient dioramas I have ever seen. A real state of art with incredible added value in terms of transmitting the atmosphere of the real thing.

Thumbs up, old friend!

Cheers
