BradG Posted June 12, 2021 Share Posted June 12, 2021 I don't normally share stuff I do for other people, but this was a different build and one that I'm rather happy I managed to beat into something good looking. It is the old 1/72 Airfix kit with new decals. The fit is pretty bad, I did several mods to the kit; threw out the clear windows and replaced them with Testors clear parts cement. I cut out then raised the fin fillet, I also added a missing air intake from the starboard rear side. The windscreen was cut in half to shorten it for a better fit and the whole nose was carved down to give a better, more pointy profile. All up it took about 6 weeks to build. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DocRob Posted June 12, 2021 Share Posted June 12, 2021 The surgery and extra effort payed well off, the Fokkker is a beauty. Always good to see an oldie turned into a goldie. Cheers Rob 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
