My 1/72 scale aircraft

If I am correct, it looks like a Mercedes D. III manufactured by Daimler. It was used throughout WWI on many different aircraft. Give us another hint. You've got me hooked.

Bill
Correct! A Mercedes D.IIIa …
Bill, I think you're right, now that I looked up some different views of it. Since it was also used on the D. VII, I'm sticking with that guess.
ya,ll have correctly identified the engine now…
 
As I recall, I think Dean has built a Fokker D.VII, Albatros D.II or D.III and a Junker CL .I. There are only a limited number of 1:72 WWI single engine German model aircraft, so I am going with the Pfalz D.III. Although, it could be a Roland D.II. I'm assume it will be 1:72 scale.

Bill
By the size of the prop, it looks to be 1:72.

I have built a Fokker D.VII, but I do have another one, and I have built an Albatros D.Va and a Junkers D1, however…
I am currently building a Pfalz D.IIIa.
Congrats! And yes they are all 1/72 scale! ;)
 
The P-39Q Airacobra is finally finished! It was a lot of work, but worth it. I have to be honest, I wasn’t too fond of it until I built the model and suddenly I really like this airplane. It was fun and educational at the same time.

The doors, a lot of detail for such tiny pieces…but that’s one thing I am impressed with about this kit, excellent detail!
I decided to have the doors partially open to see inside since it has so much detail…

I’m not a photographer, so I figure if I take enough pictures, a few of them will be good! ROTF
And she got a front row spot on my shelf…

My Wildcat got booted to the lower shelf. I am really glad I went with the sand color.
Anyway, hope you enjoyed following along.
A good looking aircraft, Dean. And the tiny decals gives a great plus to the model.
Regards, Peter
