A very minor update as I have been struggling to find time to progress this one... Tonight I played with the Spandaus using the Eduard etched set - the etched jackets add alot to the overall appearance. Roden, in their wisdom, supply the Spandaus without the jackets as well as with a moulded plastic jacket to give the builder the option. Here's the upgraded Spandau next to the kit Spandau:



I also sanded off the radiator detail on the upper wing without too many dramas - the Eduard etched set allows for the building of the offset radiator of the later D.III. I should be up to painting the wings shortly - I have seen a number of versions of Voss' later D.III upper wing colours - one with three tone dark green / light green / brown and one with two tone dark green / brown upper surfaces - anyone know which is right for Voss' later D.III?
