I had originally thought this was a D.V kit (for some reason!), but I don't think there's much between the D.III and D.V, is there?
Anyway, I'm going to attempt this:
Daz's Richthofen Albatros - **WITHDRAWN**
Daz's Richthofen Albatros - **WITHDRAWN**
My second build in the GB will be this....

Nice. You're going to be a very busy boy 
Enjoyment over accuracy. That's my motto

This should be very good.

Re: Daz's Richthofen Albatros....
That's a corking colour scheme 
And no tricky woodwork replication either
Will look forward to seeing the progress on this

If you can walk away from a landing, it's a good landing. If you use the airplane the next day, it's an outstanding landing

Re: Daz's Richthofen Albatros....
The D.III and D.V had very different fuselages, but MvR's D.III was very similarly painted to the illustration shown, so you should be okay. Are you planning to do a full standard color scheme and then mist the red over it? That should be an exciting challenge.

A good model is any model you can walk away from.

I'll have a think about it. I mean, since I'm going mad and doing rigging on this and the SE5a....!K5083 wrote:Are you planning to do a full standard color scheme and then mist the red over it? That should be an exciting challenge.

Hi chaps
As related in the SE5a thread, I've not even managed to get this one started for one reason or another!
It will be built, though, so keep an eye on the Aviation Modelling forum.
