Love the cockpit but the oil pressure reading looks a little on the low side - hohohoho

This is a Fokker E.III Eindecker from Flashback.
I picked this up at Lincoln for about ?10.
Lots of etched brass and some resin parts,
The plastic was poor and full of flash and so on.
A lot of work and filler needed to get to this stage.

Further research reveals that this is a limited edition kit from 1997.
I hope the decals hold up, but time will tell.

You will soon get it up to 100% standard even with lots of flash - finished in a couple of hours I guess  ;D ;D ;D ;D

At least you won't have a lot of rigging this time.

There is some rigging, but at the moment I am dealing with decals breaking up!
The joys of older kits.
More tearing out of hair - impossible, well gnashing of teeth then.
