1/32 Roden Fokker Dr.1 - Josef Jacobs

Recommended Posts

Here I present my Roden Fokker Dr.1 (before Meng gets theirs out).  This is Josef Jacobs' ride, complete with a Clerget 9B engine (captured from Copper State Models), extra braces on the landing gear, God of the North Wind graphic taken from an enhanced photo of Jacobs' plane, and the cowling is made from aluminum I spun on my lathe.  Jacobs' plane was a glossy black, as well.  There is a build log on ww1 aircraftmodels.com.

Thanks to all who left comments and reactions.  This was an enjoyable build with a few challenges, but nothing overwelming.

The light weathering doesn't show up at all in the photos.  The black color makes the white very bright.
