That is wonderul. The small items surrounding the model really give the impression of a real scene without detracting from the aircraft in any way. A beautiful vignette. Very many congratulations.

You know, I've never been keen on the Dr.I, especially all red or all black, but this is a true work of art and you've made me a convert!
Cheers,

Pure black is extremely difficult to render in a believable way on a model and you handled it perfectly. This is a true piece of art.

Congratulations!

I enjoyed following your build and must say you have nailed the finish. Even more impressive in that it is hand painted!! You used the mask for the devil head to great advantage in that to me it looks better than any of the decals I have seen. Finally you have set the model off beautifully with the Vignette.
