Fokker E.III - 1:72 Revell

[Mig88]

Hello everyone! Here is my Revell 1:72 Fokker E.III, 340/16, flown by Joachim Buddecke with 5nci and 12nci Bölüks, Ottoman Air Force, in 1916-17.

This was an old 1980s issue of the kit I found in a shop during the late 1990s and eventually built in 2004.
It was painted by brush with only the varnish being airbrushed. The markings came from a Pegasus decal sheet and the serial number was hand-painted.

 

Thanks for looking and all comments welcome

Nice to see an eindecker in Turkish colours.  Super little model.

Nice build

But I believe you've fallen into the common trap of painting it grey

Buddecke  himself said it was yellow

Thanks for the comment. Somehow I didn't see it before, sorry.
