Hi Friends,
Just completed another colourful German Biplane for my collection.
I love “Knights of the Sky” WW1 plane
Flown by Lt.Eugen Siempelkamp, Jasta 29, Gondecourt, France, July 1918
The wings were covered with five-colour “Lozenge” Flugzeugstoff. Siempelkamp’s personal markings
was the paper dragon as Eugen got several paper dragons from his father’s Chinese business partners as
gift when he was a child.
Gorgeous build!
Beautiful! And a very interesting story behind that symbol.
That is a beauty! Lozenge looks awesome.
A true work of art… stunning, really.
Can you please give a brief explanation as to how you acheived that gorgeous camoflouge ?
Very nice job!
Thank you friends.
Hi Trim Tab,
The camoflouge is all decals which came with the kit.
Hello
I just stummbled over this excellent Model.
Eugen Siempelkamp came from my hometown Krefeld. He survived WW1
and raised a big company together with his brother Ewald. He scored a total
of 5 victories and lived up to the age of 94 !
Outstanding work! [:D[ [:D[ [:D[
Stay safe.
