Freezing the Fokkers

I have a week to go until the club multiplayer game of WW1 air warfare, using the club Knights of the Sky house rules but have realised that I'm not going to get the three Fokker Dr.1's finished in time. I've been really busy over the last couple of weekends so haven't been able to move them much further forward, although they are now in the painting stage, as you can see from the really bad photo. Incidentally, the really streaky Olive Drab paintwork is deliberate, as that's how they were doped in the factory, although I'll be tarting it up a bit with some washes and dry brushing too.

So, I've decided that rather than rush them to meet the deadline, I'll save them until the next game, as there are enough players with their own aircraft to use anyway and I do have all the other aircraft I need, including the all important Junkers J.1. In the meantime, with only a few weeks until the end of the year, I'm not going to start anything new but will tinker around with odds and ends from existing projects including the  last of the 1/2400th scale Royal Navy ironclads, the WAT Operation Blackcock tanks, the Sandbox Skirmish 15mm squaddies or whatever else I find when I'm rummaging around.
