Brad,
Truly madly Deeply... Superb!

It's a shame the fuselage halves have got to be closed on such crisp detail.

Outstanding work, m8.
Regards.

Bob Von Green with envy

Brad, This Albatros has to rank as one of the finest builds I have ever seen! I am not even going to kid about how much I hate you,

Brad, have you been watching "Honey I Shrunk the Kids"? Because I think you have found a way to shrink yourself down to whatever scale you are working on. I have never seen detail like that. I think you are at the top of your game. We all learn from your skill. Thank you!

Seat Belts

Brad,
Just curious are the seatbelts hand made from foil or Eduard's set ?

online build-roden albatros DIII

A slight deviation. The engine shown in Patrick's link has its air pump at the back end,which is how I've built mine. What's the chronology?

Wow Brad, truly supurb!! I have to agree with Bob, it is a pity that a lot of the detail will be lost with the fuselage together, but it can't be helped.

I am glad that the engine covers will be off enough to see some of the engine detail.

I knew this would be an adventure worth watching.

I have also taken Stephen up on his offer for the Voss figure so one day I will be able to take some photo's with Voss standing there with both aircraft in this scale.

Thanks again for keeping us posted with the build progress Brad, now I have to stop looking at these pictures and see what else is happening in the world, but I just have to come back for another look....

Regards to all

PC
