Fokker E.V/D.VII

Hi All,

I just finished the Kampffieger Fokker E.V/D.VII from ECardmodels. I scaled it up to 1/24. It is an accurate model and a fun rather quick build.

The only changes I made were in adding 2 more ribs, 1 extra bulkhead between the seat back and the tail, and using thicker cardboard for the struts.

Chris

Very nice job Chris. It's an extremely clean build, and looks great.

Fokker E.V/ D.VIII in 1:24 Scale

Hi Chris,

That is a clean, good-looking Fokker E.V/ D.VIII build. I especially like the fine and well-rounded leading edge to the big cantilever monoplane wing.

Best,
Bengt in Stockholm

Thanks guys,

After generally forming the front edge of the wing sections I burnished the leading edge using the handle of a exacto knife while the leading edge was wrapped around a tapered paint brush handle. That took out any small creases.

I have since added the remaining edge colors.

Chris
