Fokker DR.1

My only criticism of this kit is that the tail struts are very fragile and need to be handled with extreme care. If you break them and can't glue them back together neatly, or don't want to use them, then you could use thin metal rods instead. The decals are excellent; they are thick enough to allow repositioning without tearing. Low cost fun, recommended for any experience level.

Not the most detailed model out there but for the price it was worth it. All the parts went together well, the directions were clear and concise and they even offered up the paint scheme for Lothar von Richtoffen's aircraft. I will buy this kit again just so I can paint the secondary scheme. We are using these 1/72nd scale models for an historical board game called Blue Max. Lots of fun and looking for more models of different and less popular WW I aircraft.

This is good little kit available for a good price which I simply could not pass up. A very simple but detailed kit, the instructions were clear, very nice detail on the two machine guns, the engine, and the wings. Decal's were very crisp and clean, positioned with no difficulty, and size did not minimize their quality and detail either. However I did have a few issues with two small pieces braking due to being very thin, and more difficulty than I had expected with getting the landing gear glued correctly to the fuselage, and the top wing glueing down and staying glued onto the wing supports. But other than that, in the end I got a very nice result out of this kit and am very pleased especially this being the first kit I used my airbrush on. I would definitely recommend this kit to another, whether you just started the hobby or are experienced you will get more than your money's worth out of this kit and have a fun build. 4 out of 5 stars on this.
