andy watson Posted September 25, 2008 Share Posted September 25, 2008 Posting here to get as wide an audience as possible, but here is my Fokker DVII build blog. have scanned in some of the colour schemes I am considering, and would like some input. It does open on the right page, but they are a long way downIf you could spare a minute to look and comment it would be greatly appreciated.

andy watson Posted September 25, 2008 Author Share Posted September 25, 2008 The blue/red combo is on the ARTF version- so I refuse to even consider it.It is nice though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andy watson Posted September 25, 2008 Author Share Posted September 25, 2008 So, absolutely no consensus so far then! Talking with a covering supplier they assure me the checked films will look terrible with the lozenge wings. I was given some complicated instructions re. airbrushing but since I don't own one, and they seem to be very very expensive, I don't think one is on the cards.Can you get a decent brush finish, or do I abandon them?

Ernie Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 Hi Andy, The diagonal striped one might be easier than you think..If you can find masking tape of the same width as the white bits, then masking is quite easy. I think this version has lozenge camouflage pattern on the wings..If you look on the web, you can find pre printed solartex type material. You might try Arizona Models, or ProctorPlease, please do try to dirty it up, these WW1 machines were really scruffy, what with battle damage, heavy use, and maintenance in fields etcgood luck ernie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andy watson Posted September 26, 2008 Author Share Posted September 26, 2008 All except the all white have lozenge wings. I am currently "negotiating" with someone who has (I think) signed a UK distribution agreement with Arizona models to get some off them. I will look up proctor now. Thanks for the views guys- yellow does seem popular! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
