Fokker Dr1 flown by Lt R Klimke, Jasta 27. Halluin-Ost, France 1918. Super fun build.
2021 will be my WW1 year... and probably years after. ?

  1. Great start to 2021, what's the significance of the anchor? Definitely liked.

  2. Love it , Paul!
    Looking forward to your 2021 builds!

  3. Beautiful work, Paul! How did you do the streaked camo?

  4. What a great start of 2021, Paul.
    Your WWI builds are very nice.
    Looking forward to the Albatros V.

  5. Beautiful start to the year. I really like this.

    That streaking looks so good it reminds me of the decals i used to get such an effect.

  6. Nicely done, great scheme!

  7. Like the camo schmeme, is it a decal or painted on (olive stripes on wings)?
    Well done!

  8. Thanks all. Its a combination of decals, masking and varied use of pressure to get the effect. I tried brush painting and it looked terrible. Lol.
    I'm now learning as I go with wood grain on an albatross. It'll be with oil colours, on the inside, and a combination of decals and oils on the outside.
    Way more fun than just the usual air brushing. ?
