Revell 1/28 Fokker Dr.1
I've always loved these big planes by Revell. This is probably the fifth triplane I've built since the sixties. Details include etched brass from Tom's Modelworks, decals by Americal Gryphon (crosses only, the rest was painted on).
Streaking is done by applying a base coat of an enamel clear doped linen color. Then, brushing on a green drab acrylic, first full strength, then diluting the brush with water as I go along until there is no color left on the brush.
This was my second attempt at hand carving a propeller

I've always had a soft spot for them too.
Very good job on yours.
I'm no expert but your paint work looks bang on to me. Nicely done Brian.
I'd have never guessed the prop was handmade...nice work.
great looking dr.1
Fantastic Brian, love the paint work.
Great prop too.
Well done mate.
Very nice finish and a real wooden prop, fantastic.
Brian,
Outstanding
