redcap Posted November 22, 2021 Share Posted November 22, 2021 Meng 1/32 DR.1 and M-v-R depicted using a resin figure by 'Model cellar'. Decals were used from the WNW "Albatros DV / Dva 'Red Baron' special boxing which also had DR.1 decals as 'extras' in the kit.. Fokker 'streaking' done using oils as was the figure.

Alan P Posted November 22, 2021 Share Posted November 22, 2021 That's brilliant Gary 👏👏👏 The subtle application with slightly translucent red and the otherwise flawless finish are top drawer. Alan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Viking Posted November 22, 2021 Share Posted November 22, 2021 Exceptional! Amazing finish on it, the streaking showing under the translucent red is really effective, as is the read wearing off the white of the fuselage cross. An absoloute pleasure to look at!

Epeeman Posted November 22, 2021 Share Posted November 22, 2021 Stunning work on your Meng DR1 and I note you straightened out the upper wing as well. Regards Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redcap Posted November 22, 2021 Author Share Posted November 22, 2021 Thanks for all the kind replies chaps. If WNW with their exacting QC had released this kit, then I would have built about 3 by now but getting the wings straightened courtesy of Meng's interpretation of QC was a 'faff' as the top one just didn't want to stay straight no matter how many times it was plunged into almost boiling water then fixed to a metal ruler. I just hope (long term) it will stay straight now...! Gary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
