olgerd83 Posted October 29, 2020 Author Share Posted October 29, 2020 started a long, boring process. based on model size (a fuselage height near engine is 21 mm) on the nose should be 3 black rhombuses, spent whole weekend on it, I tried to make them 7*7mm - too big, 5*5 too small, made them 6*6mm - looks good to me to be continued...

sky Posted October 29, 2020 Share Posted October 29, 2020 (edited) Well, this looks like a pro-level exercise in patience to me. Job well done! And fingers crossed there's no creepage under the masking tape when applying the paint. @Kais Thanks for the links, went straight into the archive. After an exhaustive read I figured this was not the D.VII (that I thought I had read in the title) but still. Now I want one such old 1:1 bird as there's a local airstrip just 5 km away from here. I wonder what the recreation from those guys would cost... Edited October 29, 2020 by sky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
olgerd83 Posted October 30, 2020 Author Share Posted October 30, 2020 - model was painted black - masks are removed not bad, very small amount of over-spray that can be easily fixed to be continued...

Out2gtcha Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 Looks great! I did my D.VII as "Mimmi" and I know all about the hassle of checkers. Looking forward to more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

olgerd83 Posted November 7, 2020 Author Share Posted November 7, 2020 Thanks guys!!! The model is ready, I thought it will be a fast 1-2 weeks project, but it took about a 1.5 months, the kit's quality is 5 out of 10, with some pros and a lot of cons. Any way, it was a fun built of a nice and unique plane, hope you will enjoy Landrotten Highlander, Kais, LSP_Kevin and 4 others 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
