Polish off those Fokkers

Under the mistaken impression I had a pile of unbuilt DML D.VIIs, I finally made an inventory and discovered only two. With the slew of new D.VIIs arriving, time to get rid of these birds. I decided to built them as post-war Fokkers, which is my excuse for slight variances in detail and outline.
They're to be OOB. They're actually fairly nice kits — lacking some detail in some places, some outline discrepancies, sinkholes and dreadful decals — and are going together quickly.
One will be that Polish bird with the curious wing streaking. I've posted a crude profile over at camouflage — http://www.theaerodrome.com/forum/sh...t=21482&page=2
— and can report that the wing streaking, if interpreted correctly, actually is pretty effective, particularly underneath.
