Really nice job, lots of work there.
On a side note, it looks like Photobucket is looking for the fastest way to go out of business.

Based on your previous work I mightily look forward to the cooperation of Photo-Bucket. Did you use the paint scheme pictured or something else? Hi Duke, The aircraft scheme was the standard Fokker 'streaked' camouflage of that period. There were no decals available so I had to try and replicate the streaking myself. I've seen it done using Oil paints, but I couldn't get it right, so reverted to airbrushing. The colours and streaking wasn't what I'd hoped for, but the kit needed so many mods to make it as accurate as possible, that frankly I lost the will to persevere. It's OK but not quite what I wanted.

Here are my two 1/5 scale RC versions. One is going to be Bongarzt's and the other I haven't decided. They are not quite finished but I think the streaking looks accurate enough.
RC WW1 aircraft?? Don't suppose you have a manufacturers name so I can check it out online?

Beautiful attention to detail, as usual, Sandbagger!
Do you have a picture of your whole collection somewhere? I would love to see it!

Hi Arup, No problem. I never got into RC models as like many, I feared that after months of work, they would end up as a pile of pieces in a field somewhere. However, I do regularly visit BMA shows in Lincolnshire, UK where I see true scale models, like yours, and am always amazed at the patience and dedication you guys put into them, not to mention the skills required. Your two DR.1's are a fine example of this, especially given the amount of work you put in to bring them up to the level of accuracy you wanted. Congratulations on great builds

Man you guys... Sandbagger, you've always done museum quality work, but if I ever showed my wife how neat and organized your work area is, well, she'd just have one more reason to hound my unfortunate messiness. ARUP, I'm with Sandbagger, if I could ever get one built, It'd probably never fly it out of fear! Good on ya!

Give acrylic paints a try for the streaking if you don't like the oils. But actually I agree with ARUP. I think they look great.
