Roden 1/72 Fokker D.VII early

Hello all,

here's my latest work - Berthold's Fokker D.VII. This one gave me pretty much headache, especially regarding lower wing to fuselage joint, and famous Roden's OOB lozenge decals.
Some things in cockpit are scratchbuild, everything is painted using paintbrush, and light weathering is obtained using art pigments... If you're interested, the complete build log is here: Fokker D.VII Group build

Excellent D.VII.Your streaked panel look very realistic.How did you do this and what's your technique ? It even appears to have a texture to it,outstanding.

Thanks for comment
Streaks are done by gently running up-to-down half-dry brush (Humbrol 86 light olive) over 2 coats of Vallejo Flat Flesh

Profa...nice looking model. The bottom wing is and always has been a problem with this kit. It still didn't stop you from making a fine looking model tho. Congratulations.
