Hubert Boillot Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 This build has woken up my itching of getting some of these WnW Fokkers or DH-2, or both ... Outstanding work. You're going to turn a great kit in a real gem. Hubert Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

miamiangler Posted June 6, 2013 Author Share Posted June 6, 2013 (edited) This weeks update . It`s been a while since I have done anything on the Fokker . I`m using Tamyia X-22 for my A/C . I did a 50/50 mix of white and German gray which I used as the base coat . Then taped up the wings and fuselage which got a coat of black sprayed over all the taped areas . Then the area between the taped area got a coat of German Gray. That`s as far as I got today . when dry the whole A/C will get light coats of the 50/50 mix of German gray. I`m hoping this will work,with some of the frame work showing through.

miamiangler Posted June 9, 2013 Author Share Posted June 9, 2013 Today`s update , I went over the wings and fuselage with a 50/50 mix of white and German grey till I got the finish coat I liked .the fuselage got a few light coats of smoke to get the stained look that is seen on some of the photos of the real Fokker EIII. The decals went on with no problems .On the wings I used a mix of water and white glue before placing the large decals . Today I finish placing the bare metal foil on the front office of the fuselage . After the foil is on for a few days the next step is to finish the jeweling . Well that`s it for now , Willi whiskytngofxtrt 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
