NEW! Fokker wing, tail and fuselage sets!
Each specifically altered to fit the Eduard kits, with upper and lower "lozenge" colours in their distinctive "Fokker-built", "Albatros-built" and "OAW-built" configurations.
Essentially, both 1/48 and 1/72 Eduard DVII's have under-sized ailerons and over-stated rib detail - in places where it wasn't present (!) - along with slight discrepancies in fuselage width and depth.
This means that we could not merely scale down our artworks from our WNW 1/32-fitting versions and so these sets have had to be re-designed.
Through financial necessity Eduard did not trouble themselves with all the various idiosyncracies of each manufacturer's airframes and much of the kit is generic, with a pretty poor representation of the Mercedes engines, with no real provision made for the later BMW..
If you are interested in further refining the otherwise excellent 1/48 and 1/72 kits I strongly recommend you visit the still-online Wingnut Wings website (www.wingnutwings.com) and compare the down-loadable instruction pamphlets - themselves an essential addition to any serious modeller's references.
Plus there are, of course, the trio of Albatros Production booklets on the DVII - but you've got these, haven't you?...
For these new decals to fit you are obliged to make the following, suggested, simple "improvements" to the Eduard kit parts :
Suggested alterations to fit the Roden DVII "Fokker built"
ATT48083 Special Ukraine Fokker DVII set
All profits from this and the 1/32 set are donated to the Red Cross and aid trips to the Ukraine/Polish border, which have brought relief to hundreds of refugee families fleeing the fighting.
All metal parts of the Fokkers fuselage should be painted mid-sheen "Fokker green" - a mid to dark green but open to interpretation!..

ATT48047 (for Eduard kit) Fokker DVII (Fokker built") 4 colour "lozenge" with lozenge tapes
Can also be used on the Roden kit with a little persuasion..
ATT48048 (for Eduard kit) Fokker DVII (Fokker built") 5 colour "lozenge" with lozenge tapes
Can be made to fit the Roden kit also, with a little persuasion..
ATT48084 (for Eduard kit) Fokker DVII 'F' Ltn. Lothar von Richthofen, Jasta 11
BMW-powered 'F' DVII, previously thought to have been flown by Wolfram v R but now thought to be his brother, Lothar's.
Obviously, the scheme is a tribute to his fallen brother but would also suit a 'What if?' scenario...imagine the carnage MvR would have inflicted on the RAF in a BMW-powered DVII..
