Something like a WWI red baron type plane?

    I searched on "Fokker" (not at renderotica) and came up empty. I thought there was one, but maybe not.

    (It's the Fokker "Dreidecker" Dr.1 that you're after...)

    I saw a couple Fokker Dreidecker models at Renderosity.

    EDIT: Maybe this entry at Sharecg: https://sharecg.com/v/57872/browse/5/3D-Model/Christmas-Surprise-2
    (Includes a few WW1 warbirds...)

    I could have sworn there was a WWI set of planes in the store. The problem is PAs have no concept of how to keyword their products. Search on AIRPLANE and you get a fraction of what's available.

    FalconTruth has a DS Iray ready Fokker Triplane over at Renderosity, which may be what you're thinking of, though the quality of the textures in the promo images doesn't impress me.

    Looks like a Nieuport 28.

    That's perfect but Carrara only? I only have Daz Studio...

    Here is that ShareCG Fokker Dr1... the plane itself scales up nicely (425% in this render), although the textures do not- might have to tweak them a bit in Photoshop first.

    The ShareCG model is non-commercial use only, I sell art so I can't use that. Renderosity has one that works in Daz Studio but it's $25. I sell art but I'm not living in a penthouse, $25 is too much for my profit margin. Maybe I should sell a couple NFTs and then I can buy that penthouse...? UPDATE: There is a free photograph of a Fokker at Pixabay.com I can use. I will have to remove the background and 2D limits what I can do with it. If only I knew how to use Blender/Hexagon as well as I know Photoshop..

    There's this

    https://www.renderosity.com/rr/mod/bcs/sopwith-pup/152728/

    Not exactly what you're looking for, but you could try contacting the vendor to see if he's working on/willing to make what you want.

    Fokker by Vanishingpoint

    Fokker by Kanaa

     

    The top one has nicer mesh and textures, the second one is way cheaper *and* comes in the famous red colourscheme (no, not all of them were red). It really depends on what you need and what you can do yourself which one is better. I'm pretty sure I've seen a few more of these around, but, they can be hard to find when you need them.

    I'd actually forgotten about the Kanaa one... and I bought it last March...  I pulled it out and did an uber-quick iray conversion using Riversoft/Sickleyield's script and it looks like this:

    The promos of the Kanaa model show very inaccurate scaling... a human is at least twice the size of the Victoria figure in the first promo image.

    (Edited to add... I just realized the background model used in that image is my Caprinia Pavilion model from ShareCG... I'm thrilled someone is actually using it)

    The scale is definitely wonky - proper measurements

    Height            9' 8"

    Length          18' 11"

    Top wing span 23' 7"

    Mid wing span 20' 5"

    Bottom wing span 18' 6"

    The wheels are just under 28 inches (710 mm) from the reference material I dug up.
