Let's Craft Episode 2 Eduard 1/48 Fokker Dr.I

For this episode I tackle my first World War 1 plane in years, my personal favorite the Fokker Dr.I. I tried cutting down the run time of this episode compared to the Spitfire one so hopefully this one will perform better.

DAMN!!! Fella, I seen every video on a 1/32 - 1/48 Fokker Dr.1 and now Yours. Well, I saved the Best for last. Awsome! Never seen that much detail. I'm getting ready to build a Eduard 1/48 Fokker Dr.1 MVR version of 444/17. Waiting for decals and photo etch. The kit is the Ltn. Austin Rabon version. Then I have, My Favorite WW1 Ace Werner Voss's Fokker F.1 Eduard 1/48. I'm doing those before I tackle another Eduard Albatros D.111 of Voss. Sorry to ramble, But I'm a 63 yr man who hasn't built a model in 53 yrs. these planes are 2, 3 and 4. My first I just finished, Moebius Invisible Man. I feel like a kid again. Thanks for making this GREAT video. Learned A Lot.

Muchas gracias, I'm very humbled by your kind compliments. I think it's awesome that you are returning to the hobby after all those years. Have fun.

Excellent video, thanks for the production - I can appreciate the effort that went into it. Is there a way to turn off the annoying sounds each time a bubble appears/disappears ... while still keeping the pleasant music?

[@breaktherule758]

Great model, really nice idea with the putty to make the dirt effects in the wheels!

[@ofmodelsandmonsters]

Gracias.

[@pabonismygod]

¡Genial! I still struggle with food finishes, so I usually deploy the oil colors... then give it a week for everything to dry. Let's just say that patience is a virtue I don't really know all that well. ^_^

[@martinhawkins1132]

Great video! Thanks for sharing!

[@Duececoupe]

Love it.... Picked up a handful of the Eduard 1/48 Combo kits and their Der Rote Flieger....a Red Baron machine is must! Hope to see some more Eduard 1/48 WWI aircraft, or Roden! 😉😎 Watched, liked and subscribed.... Greetings from a Swede in Glasgow, Scotland....👋🏻

[@ofmodelsandmonsters]

Muchas gracias, glad you enjoyed the vid and don't worry there will be more Eduard builds and some Roden too.

[@joseluisjimenez2245]

Very nice!!!

[@rrdavis7476]

A fantastic video with great attention to detail, where the build of the model is concerned. The text message tops it off nicely, especially when adding a little sense of humour. im glad that i have subscribed to your channel. keep up the great work.

[@ofmodelsandmonsters]

@@charlie418791 ¡Gracias!

[@laszloszigetvari5335]

congratulation for the model! Looks very detailed, great job! Can you please tel me what material you have used as wire? Thanks!

[@ofmodelsandmonsters]

I used EZ Line fine black rigging.

[@donmehl556]

C27 was eaten by the carpet monster.

[@ofmodelsandmonsters]

You noticed that, huh.

[@luisrodrigues2171]

Excellent, I learned a lot, I have a similar model to build and the video gave me a base to start the work. What kind of wire do you use?

[@ofmodelsandmonsters]

Muchas gracias, glad you enjoyed it. I Use a product called E Z Line for the wiring, it's stretchy so you can get tight rigging.

[@xiaoyunge9991]

It seems so hard to buy this kit now

[@ofmodelsandmonsters]

Yeah there's a few Eduard 1/48 WWI kits that you just can't find anymore. Sometimes they re-release them so maybe it'll return.

[@jackatr5048]

What is the code of the red color please? Thank you.

[@ofmodelsandmonsters]

I used a mix of Vallejo Model Air's Red RLM23 (71.003) and Orange (71.083), although when I look back, I shouldn't have bothered with the orange.
