Cool and great job, 1:72 you say, impressive! I love the ww1 german planes. So colourful, I also like that you made it your own![:D]
Great work Frosty. You are becoming the Queen of the 1/72 WWI clan.
Regards, Rick
frosty great work. beautiful.

Beautiful looking build Forsty

Awesome looking Fokker frosty…each time I look at it, I feel the urge to try one myself [;)]
It’s a pretty nice build there! Now, I hate to be a spoilsport and such, but it looks like the white has… well… not covered that well. It looks like it could have used a few more coats. Also on the bottom wing you seem to have gotten some paint bleed onto the lozenge decals. Other than that like I said nice build.
LOVE those WWI airplanes. Plus you have a myriad of paint schemes to choose from.
Nice job!

Great looking build there Frosty! You’re making it hard for me to resist trying some of those WWI aircraft. I just know they are so tiny but I guess they can’t be worse than those 1/72 me 163’s I’ve done. Thanks for the pics.
Can’t get the hang of biplanes and the like, but you seem to have it down. Good job and thanks for sharing!
Very nice build! I don’t have the courage to tackle a biplane yet.

Frosty - What a “cool” idea ! very creative.
Nice job on the engine detail too.
Chris
Nice work on that little Fokker. [}:)]

thanx 4 ur comments …
the lozenge decals flaked off the edges of the lower wing,
i’ve touched those areas up w/ paint & it looks better now…
as 4 the white, the metal cowling panels were natural aluminium
when the a/c was delivered, but i had the ground crew paint
them white 2 cut down on reflection… (that’s my story & i’m sticking 2 it… [;)])
i will leave it as is 4 the ‘field-applied’ look, LOL…

Looks great, Frosty. I think you’ve captured that “field-applied” paint scheme very nicely. I’m gearing up to build my first model, a Pfalz D.IIIa. I just hope I can make my Pfalz look at least half as good as your Fokker [:D].
Very cool, frostygirl, nice detail for 1/72, and I like the color scheme. Particularly like the engine. [:D]
Awesome work, Frosty![:D] I be scared of WWI biplanes in 1/48, let alone 1/72! LOL[:p] - Calvin
Sweet Fokker, Frosty. Now you have me poking through a box of Nitto 1/72 D-VIIs that someone gave me a few years ago and I haven’t touched since then … speculative paint job you say … hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm …
Very nice build Frosty. Do they make those in 1:48?
