Fokker D. II, Jasta 16b (Special Hobby, 1:32)
« on: March 16, 2018, 11:38:29 PM »
I finished the new SH-kit. I used AVIATTIC linnen decals, a Gaspatch MG and a WNW rotary.
The kit was a joy to build and my model represents a Fokker D. II of Jasta 16b (former KEK Ensisheim) at the turn of 1916/1917. It's one of the planes that were painted by Lt. Fritz Grünzweig.







Hope you like it.
Best regards

I enjoyed following your build as always. Your painting, rigging, and weathering are awesome. The figure and groundwork certainly set this beautiful aircraft model off! Finally the Hand painted Grasshopper insignia is a work of art on it's own!

    Spectacular finish Andreas! You've done a magnificent job on this little beauty. I'll be coming back to your Under Construction Thread often when I start mine. The hand painted Grass Hopper addition is particularly well done! :)
Cheers,

That cartoon on the nose is just spectacular. The build was a joy to follow (as always), and the finished model displays your supreme talents to very good advantage. Many congratulations.

Very nice work, Andreas! I love your choice of camouflage colours on the wings too (amongst all the other nice weathering, painted markings, etc etc obviously!) and will get me Revell 37 for that elusive reddish brown. I like the contrast with the green. :)

Fantastic, Andreas! As I said before, I love your work, the Plane is a stunner and the groundwork plus the figure are the cherry on top.
