    Super set of planes Tim! Jacobs is one of my favorite pilots.

    I finally got 3 planes from one unit. Here are my Kesta4 flight.

    These are Shapeways. Painted white, then green streaked with a watered down craft paint 'Americana' Avacado DA52.
    Decals are Dom's but the full white Maltese crosses are painted. (I ran out of decals) Peter Pig pilots.

    Very fine looking machines Peter. I always did like black and white stripes.

    It has been a while since I've trolled this thread. What lovely groups of planes!

    Well done, all - this is certainly an inspiration for those of us wanting to 'fly' multiple planes from the same unit. Perhaps I'll have something to add to this thread in a couple of weeks...

    All the best,
    Matt

    Thanks Chris. My eye was caught by the photo in the Fokker DII painting thread. In a search for them I found it was green. After doing one I found myself ending up with three with a slight variation. My first group of like planes. I definitely will have to do this again.

    I blame you. After seeing how great it looked in the Doncaster game I now must follow suit.

    They are beautiful Peter! You did very well with the crosses too. Decals really werent necessary.

    Thanks Nick. Sad to say the first time all 3 flew together they all went down!

    That is mean luck Peter. i know newly finished planes are renowned for going down, but all three in one game just ain't right somehow even for a German.

    I just received two Fokker DIIs from Shapeways, and I have a line on a couple more from a friend locally here - I was inspired by your Kesta 4 lads, Peter - I may end up copying your scheme here. Thanks again for sharing them.

    All the best,
    Matt

    Matt, look at the 2nd post on the Official Fokker DII painting thread. I based my 3 off of this photo. Not all have the B&W striped fuselage. If I get another 1 or 2 I'll do them for the same unit but a slightly different scheme like some of the others.

    Lets see some photos when you're done!

    Going back to my roots......................

    My first repaints of WGF minis were Jasta 18 Albatros DVas, Pfalz DIIIa and Fokker Dr1 planes way back in January of 2014.

    Now I have finished the first of my Jasta 18 Fokker DVIIs

    Nice one Tim, and a reminder that not so long ago I bought a couple of white Fokkers to complete mine. Another job in the pipeline.

    These (and the next four) are Saschenbergs..................that way I can keep the underwing lozenge rather than apply lozenge decals myself to a Goring.
