Fokker DR1

[moon puppy]

Oh the week it's been! I finally got to the garage some this weekend. I had worked on the prop some over the week, just a Vallejo Buff and again, one of the browns, I need to remember which one! Then a coat of transparnet yellow.

Here's the assembly so far, most decals on and a coat of Alclad Aqua Clear

The cowl was done in the Vallejo Off White with a drop of buff in there.

Hope you like this fokker..

Good one...

Thanks James, I like it also. Wish I had a better demark between the colors to give it more of that laminate (is that the right term?) look. You know where they sandwich two different woods together?

 

[jknaus]

Yup, laminate. Looks good to me. Whole thing does. Now I want to build another DrI. Nice work Bob.

I pulled out the little fokker today.

Just did some light weathering, oil streaks

think I need some more oil

Not far from finishing this, I'm apprehensive about the landing gear. Very delicate assembly, maybe about 3 beers in me and I can take it on..

 

[MrT]

Well at least you won't known if you messed up until morning.

Pretty oily.

I eyeballed it tonight...almost got brave but didn't want to screw up a good day.

 

[moon puppy]

Well got brave today, really don't like how this goes together but it's on on it's axle. Need to paint the wheels, do some light rigging and some touch up paint. Maybe get it knocked out tomorrow. :hmmm
