WnW Fokker E.1 13/15
« on: February 05, 2018, 07:14:32 PM »
Hello all,

I have been away from the forum for the last year, not really building any WWI aircraft with the exception of this one rpesented with this topic. It is the WnW's Fokker E.1 13/15, Max Immelmann & Oswald Boelcke, FFA 62, August 1915, I added Gaspatch turnbucles and machine gun, Steven Robson's spoked wheels and some scratched parts here and there, for example the propeller which is handmade by me. I hope you like it!

Beautiful!
You did a great job. The colour variations are superb and the weathering is outstanding.
Perfect!

Great to see you back. Although not my favourite plane, your model of E.I is spectacular. Great weathering, exactly as per those filthy Fokkers with rotary engines. Great modelling, SsashoO!

I think you've captured every facet of the aircraft so well. It's a beautiful model & one for us to use as reference as regards appropriate weathering.

Regards

SsashoO,
     Great to see you and your work back here again, and what a work it is. To use the Baseball term, you've hit this one well out of the park, just a magnificent model!! The finish is exceptional; the "swirling" on the metal panels, the weathering in particular, and the colors are all perfect to my eye and the rigging, prop, and those "Robson" wheels are impressive as well. I have to go on the record as saying this is one of the finest models I've seen on this Forum, and I believe the best in the hobby are to be seen here. My compliments, this is really admirable work!
Cheers,
Lance
