Its has good pictures. You can see the interior.

nsclcctl,

I've got a couple of great cockpit photos at home that I'll post here after work or later this evening.

The Fokker D.7's interior is steel tube painted a blue-green color with a wood instrument panel. The fabric of the plane's sides is very visible from inside the cockpit. This photo shows what the plane looks like without fabric:

You can see how the fabic covering would serve as the cockpit side walls.

My plan is to get some of that Testors decal paper, scan the lozenge decal that came with my kit, make it a mirror image in Photoshop, and then apply it to the inside of the fuseulage. I'll probably lighten it a bit too.

Regards,

so, if I am going for a flat white finish, I think like Goerings DRVII, paint the interior fuselage flat whitre as well with the tubing being blue green I can do that as sort of a drybrush, correct?

Yes, you can dry brush the frame, but I think I'd go with something like a sand or linen color instead of flat white. Something with a little tan in it.

By the way, here are the two photos I mentioned:
