Building the Airfix and Revell 1/72 Fokker EII and EIII Eindecker

Please consider supporting me on Patreon -   / steamgeezer  

The head of the Moving Pictures Department here at Badgerworks is very excited as we've just gone over 100 subscribers, so as a thank you we've got a bit of a special treat - not one but two models from the Miniaturisation Department.

This is a side by side comparison of the 1/72 scale Fokker Eindecker, one from Airfix and one from Revell, not to see if one is better than the other, but purely to see how they've treated the same subject.
