I started with the Fokker F.I. A nice pretty small kit.
I added some extra detail to the interior sides.
I used a mix of oil paints diluted with turpentine over an acrylic primer for the wood texture. The kimt was painted overall with Humbrol 65. Then I use a mix of pastels diluted with turpentine and an old brush to achieve the texture of the particular hand brushed camo scheme of the third prototype.

Stunning result. 🙂
I love the wood grain effect, and the way the texture turned out.🙂
Well done. 👍 👍

Hi Kerry, thank you very much! 👍 I hope we will enjoy a good play next Sunday in the Rugby World Cup! 🙂

Hi Gustavo, I am pleased to see your a rugby man, and the match next Sunday will be great, and good luck to Argentina mate, and don't get too drunk if your team wins. LOL 🙂 👍

LOL, thanks Kerry, just getting a little drunk may be a good idea, no matter the result of the match!

All done. @Kerry, congratulations mate! It was a terrific match, everybody gave the best! Good luck next Saturday! 👍

I was very impressed wit the way your team just didn't give up mate. 🙂
They fought hard and it really was a good match, but I really think the Kiwi's will take the cup home. 🙂
Cheers good buddy. 👍

Excellent laburo!!!! jajaja, Kerry I agreed with you ..Pumas fought hard....but not good enough..

It's still one of the most flowing games of league in the world, constantly changing from second to second, almost as exciting as MotoGp. 🙂 👍

The wood!!! wow, it looks wonderful Gustavo, they look to be so intricate to assemble, and you have my admiration for your work. 👍 👍

Thanks Da In, Kerry! BTW, Valentino gets crazy! LOL It will be great! Will he be able to go forward from the last place in Valencia to get his 10th championship? Amazing!

I really think that Valentino resents Marque's ability, as Marquez has just ridden circles around him and all the others. I think he will be more times world champ than Valley. 🙂

Sorry Gustavo, but the Albatros of Werner Voss had a swastika on its fuselage, not a white cross - you can find plenty of pictures of that on the internet. Revell modified the decoration to avoid trouble with German interdiction of use the Nazi symbol (the tilted swastika). Of course, the swastika of Voss and Lothar Weiland on their Albatros biplanes were no nazi symbols. In my opinion this deviation of the "historical" truth somehow spoils an otherwise excellent scale model.

Hi Erik, thank you, I'm aware of this fact, and that the original symbol is almost 12000 years old. I also evaluated building my own decals, as I did many times in the past. Perhaps I will do at some moment in time.

Hi Erik, I've added the swastikas, using some little pieces of white decal paper left from the decals I made for the Evalina.

It is always useful to have left overs, Gustavo, and now it lokks much better than my Albatros.
