Hi,
I got from life couple of hours for Fokker, so had not hesitated at all and did what should had been done weeks ago. Finally you can see biplane…upside down as the glue is still fresh. Frankly I was afraid of not keeping her tight but there she is ;D

I had read some time ago that a very well respected artist and fellow modeler called this kit "A nasty little collection of styrene lumps".  Well, not in your able hands, K!  Bloody marvelous!

Hi,
the project is almost done. Just waiting for prop drying as I was not satisfied with my first woodcarved. Well I will try with wood in the future as it requires more practice ;)

Excellent K! She really looks fantastic! I had this kit years ago and opted to trade it away because I really didn't want to put in the kind of work you have done  :-[
