A simple, almost naive, attempt to capture the reds & camouflage colourings. The drawing is obviously free hand and I'm not yet comfortable with blending different shades to achieve a worthwhile outcome. Yet, I have sold quite a few copies of this print.
The Fokker DR.1 (Dreidecker) first saw widespread service in the spring of 1918. It was slow with poor directional stability and was prone to upper wing failure. Only 320 were manufactured and no originals survive.
The Omaka Aviation Heritage Centre in Blenheim, NZ, maintains five flyable replica DR.1s.
