nice project Im  90% done with my 190 C V18 . due to this virus .  I used a mix of Tamiya 40%XF-22 RLM gray ,40% XF-49 ,20%  white  color looks close to RLM02 . the bottom of the right aileron looks like RLM 76 . I started my project on here years ago but photoshop blocked out all pic, s of my build . Im going to start posting pics as soon as I can figure out how to do it again. Good luck on your project .

Hi Kevin ,
 
Awesome DR1 , makes me want to go and get one of these kits . Great job and love the markings
 
Willi

Hi ,
 
It`s been a while since I posted any thing . This is what was at my doorstep when I got home from Work .
 

 
 
It`s in a nice big box with tons of parts . All the parts look great . I`ll probably do this one OOB . I first have to finish the Endecker EIII and Sopwith Tripe unless I weaken just looking at the box in the model room . By the way the bonus pilot and landing lights are awesome . It was well worth waiting a year for this kit . One of my favorate German Aircraft . Thanks ZM for doing a great job on the kit. Well worth the 212.oo dollars I spent.
 
Hope to start this soon ,
 
Willi

This is the kit I won on Swanny`s WW1 contest . This kit will be a little more of a challenge then the WNW`s kits. I`ll be detailing the engine and interior . There`s no decals for the instrument s on the dash board so some work will be done there . I`m going to start with the engine first . I will replace all of the round bumps on the engine block with Vector Cut nuts . the spark plugs will be made from rods and tubing . the push rods will get the same work done by replacing the oversized plastic with metal tubing .
 

 
Before:
 

 

 
After:
 

 
Added the nuts and using .25mm rod as a guide for the push rods .
 

 
More to come later .
 
Thanks ,
 
Willi

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.

Today` update:
 
I got all the metal work done and the Taurus engine is installed Here`s a few photo`s
 

 

 

 

 

 
Thanks,

Hi Harvey, 
With a dremal tool and toothpick with a 1mm disk of sandpaper glued to tip with CA glue .
 

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 ,

I added the cables to the floor boards ,Not too happy with the results . I used wire which probably was not the best choice. Next time I`ll use mono ! Most wont be seen with the small cockpit ,
 
 
 

 

 
Thanks ,Willi

Thanks Peter ,
 
It took a lot of trial and error ,but I think I got the hang of doing the metal work . The build is stalled till I get the PE set and HGW seatbelts from RollModels . I did finish the Germania prop and IMG 08 Spandau machine gun .
 

 

 
Thanks ,Willi

Hi Everyone,
 
The Fokker Scourge was the period of the ascendancy of the Fokker Eindecker monoplane fighter aircraft of the Imperial German Fliegertruppen.
 
My daughter got me the WNW Fokker Eindecker for Christmas . So this is the next kit I`will be doing. I have the awesome Taurus engine and sparkplugs .Many thanks to Mr Lukasz. I`m hoping to start building next week .
 
 
Thanks ,
 
Willi
