Fokker E.IV Max Immelmann - 1:72 ICM

[Mig88]

Here is my ICM 1:72 Fokker E.IV which I built back in 2004.

It represents 189/16 flown by Oblt. Max Immelmann from February 1916 with which he shot 3 enemy aircraft. He didn’t like the aircraft and replaced it for a standard two-gun E.IV.

The kit was a tricky build with some poor join of parts in places. It was built OOB. The white areas for the markings came from white decal sheet. Some of the insignia were replaced due to problems with some of the decals.

The kit was fully painted by brush except for the flat coat which was applied with airbrush.

 

Thank you for looking and all comments are welcome as always

Nicely done, the rigging is very clean.

That is very impressive - the more so given that it is in the true scale.
