The paper modeling world is drawing a lot of followers from the builds on this forum and your build is right up there with the best.
Thanks Kevin! Your comment about paper modeling is so true. I had never built a paper model until I saw Dan's original build threads on this forum (Avro Spider, Pfalz Dr.I), and decided to give it a go. Once I did I was hooked!
Marco has graciously offered two beautiful Albatros Oeffag paper kits for download with no charge on his thread under this heading, so anyone can hop on the paper train! Marco's recent build threads here are really inspirational, as are Dan's YouTube video tutorials. It really is fun, with all of the ups and downs of plastic modeling, but far easier on the pocketbook.
sp, thanks for your kind comment as well. The Berg is not the most beautiful of aircraft, but the Austrian schemes are really unique and attractive, and Marco's repaints are just gorgeous. Hopefully, I can continue to get this one together well. I shall give it my best. This is just my second paper kit build, so I still have much to learn, but I am really enjoying it, even with the occasional missteps and frustrations. Always nice to just print another parts sheet at Office Max for $1.50 when you foul something up beyond repair!
Cheers,
Bob
