Looking for Werner Voss Fokker Triplane

[carlou55]

Hello. I have been looking for a reasonably accurate model of Werner Voss Dr-1 Triplane. I have looked at many. and indeed have several, but none are correct. For example, they all show the basic color scheme as an olive green all over the aircraft. Voss's Triplane was an early example and was a light blue with only moderate green streaking applied. I did find a reference to one that used to be available on Ecard models, but that is gone now. So my question is does anyone know of a model that is correct in at least most aspects? Thanks for reading!

If you are patient enough, wait for Luis P. Igualada's kit. He has already released a Fokker Dr. I kit (1/33 Fokker DR I 403/17 Johannes Janzen Paper Model - EcardModels) and I am sure that F.I will follow.

Yes! That is a great point. And his models are amazing too...

Roman Seissler aka morewings did a series of DR.1s; according to Arbeitskreis Geschichte des Kartonmodellbaus (AGK) e.V. - 18 Modellbaubogen vom Verlag sero-papermodels also the 103/17 which was flown by Werner Voss.

Roman died back in 2020 and I don't know if someone did take over his business, which was to be found on www.sero-papermodels.com . I much rather assume that the business was discontinued and the models are no more available for purchase.

Thank you all for responding. The information is very helpful. I actually have the Triplane from Mr. Igualalda, and it looks to be a very good rendition. I only wish the ones from Mr. Seissler were available somewhere, as they seem to be excellent models. I found a reference to one that was on Ecard models that looks like Seisslers version, but it is no longer available. I will hope that someone sees fit to do Voss's Triplane correctly. Again. Many thanks to all of you.
