Latest Acquisitions Revisited!

I am just not interested in doing a red Richtofen plane.

Good, cause that's what I'm doing to the Rowan kit I got at Chattanooga.

 

[moon puppy]

unless there are aftermarket ones available I suppose.

Feast on this my friend.

Paul...

I seem to remember that the WnW Fokker DvII kit had decals that represented the streaking on certain schemes...I've no idea how well they worked though.

 

[Heavens Eagle]

There were several DVII kits Michael. I have a couple and will check them and my references. I myself would paint it rather than decal it, but that is me anyway.

 

[moon puppy]

WnW supplied Lozenge decals in several kits, I don't recall streaking but may not have had the right kit.

You know Mike, while I would like to do a triplane, I am just not interested in doing a red Richtofen plane. Are there any other marking options in the kit?

I have a set of decals that do not include either the Baron or Goering. Let me look for them...

Aviattic makes Fokker streaked decals.

I'll have to check the sheet....I have all the leftovers somewhere...but yeah- easy enough to recreate with a brush and not have to worry about seams or decals settling in correctly.

 

[moon puppy]

The Aviatic decals are not your run of the mill decals. The ones I've worked with actually have a fiber feel to them, very robust yet they conform to surface really nice.

 

[Jeeves]

Oh I'm doing the red plane...got no qualms about that

 

[Jeeves]

Found the ones from the D.VII...kind of cool...

 

[moon puppy]

But you could pull that off easily with some oil paints.

 

[Jeeves]

Absolutely...

 

[Heavens Eagle]

Yeah, I would paint that as well. We are so going to miss WNW.

Does it include the changes needed for the Fokker F.1?

Regards,

 

[Heavens Eagle]

I think the F.1 was a separate kit Saul. I believe WNW was going to release two kits. There were two builds on the table at Chattanooga, but I didn't take good photos of the cards telling what they were.

There are three cowlings, are there two sets of ailerons? I have not seen the sprues.

Regards,

 

[Jeeves]

Two sets of ailerons, two rudders, I think two sets of wheels....and the option of styrene Spandaus or a PE screen to represent the shrouds, but no jig to roll them
