Not ugly at all, Filip!  Absolutely gorgeous, in fact!  Your cdl and wood grain are perfect.  I have this one sitting close to the top of my stash pile.  You've inspired me to move it up. 
Cheers,
Bud

What a great model Filip, well done! (even if the original design might not win too many prizes in any world war one aircraft beauty contest.)

Best wishes
Nigel

Hi Filip.

Ugly? Not at all.

You made it quite beautiful. The cdl  woodgrain and the weathering are superb.

Congrats on that beauty.

Cheers

Congratulations Filip on an excellent job, the finished model looks superb. Not my most favorite looking aeroplane but like all WW1 aircraft it has its place in history and you have certainly done it justice.

When it comes to the pilot figure - I don`t have an Austro-Hungarian one so I decided that the French might do if you turn your blind eye on it... In the B&W pics you can` t tell its blue  ;)
Thanks for really too kind remarks!
Best regards
Filip
