Hi Ross!

Very nice model! I like the paintscheme. Was it made of decals or was it brushpainted?

Truly Marlon Scultz always does fine work. I just wish there was as fine a mold in 1/48. The colour scheme is unique. Hopefully Marlon will show up and talk about his build.

Hi all !

Ross sent me an email to this site as there were those interested in my triplane model.

The only decals are the black crosses. The rudder black cross with the white outline is decal. As is all the works numbers, wing numbers, etc.

The Fokker factory finish is entirely hand painted by me.

Read my write up on Ross' site. I hope I can answer any questions, as I would imagine the 3 colour finish is something new to most.
