Jinxman Posted August 24, 2019 Share Posted August 24, 2019 Here's my completed Fokker from the May, Blitzbuild 1 GB - didn't quite make completion back in May as I had trouble with the lozenge decals folding up - by the time I had worked it out I had lost some of the lozenges and too much time. Anyway, in an effort to get it done before joining the Blitzbuild 2 GB this weekend I finished it off - the extra time allowed some weathering and rigging which I probably wouldn't have attempted in the GB. All in all a very nice little kit, even with the tricky decals. Hope you like her. 35 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kapam Posted August 27, 2019 Share Posted August 27, 2019 Awesome build! If I wanted a subject to start learning rigging skills, this would be a good choice. Very inspiring and I think your weathering is spot-on. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrzeM Posted August 27, 2019 Share Posted August 27, 2019 Great job, and it looks like 1/48!! Congratulations! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pheonix Posted August 27, 2019 Share Posted August 27, 2019 Got to agree that that looks much larger than 1/72. Despite the problems with transfers you have achieved a super finish. P. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Basuroy Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 I like how it has turned out , btw can you tell me how you suggest to approach the decal application so that I don't run into the same issue ; this kit is next in my build pile. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buzby061 Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 Lovely. Any problems you had certainly aren't apparent. As has been said, it could easily pass for 1/48th. Pete 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had issues with the first one, a little bit with the second, and got my act together with the third and fourth ones. The decals are very thin, and once they are on they settle down beautifully. Less soaking seemed to help - not sure why. With the ones that worked better I used a little more microsol - the surface being wetter also seemed to help out. I also think I was rushing a little because it was a blitzbuild. 😀 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GREG DESTEC Posted August 31, 2019 Share Posted August 31, 2019 Brilliant job! I like the WW1 stuff with all the colourful markings. Well done 🍺 Greg 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
