"Drooling Bulldog" from "Drooling Bulldog" Fokker D VII OAW
« on: June 24, 2018, 09:42:41 PM »
Just finished my "Drooling Bulldog" Fokker D VII OAW. Eduard + Roden + Part 1/48
P.S. unfortunately the geometry of the lower wing limps...

    Great finish, looks well used but not overly so and the fabric portions are very realistically portrayed. What color "wash" did you use, the info mentions a green or grey? You got it just right to my eyes.
Cheers,

The root ribs on the lower wings of the Roden D.Vill kit must be sanded down. Otherwise, the overly tight fit between the wings and fuselage will cause the wings to bow downward.
