Paints used were Tamiya XF 71 and Misterkit GC02 for top of wings, GC03 Albatros blue for undersurface and fuselage. Tamiya XF 65 for Dk green on top of fuselage. Always liked the Albatros with the headrest.

A very nice clean build. The end result looks really good, very nicely done in this tiny scale....

That's lovely with a great choice of colour/marking scheme.

I like this one a lot RVW! I am rather fond of the Mauve and Green schemes - with that high demarcation line it reminds me of the early-WWII Bf.109Es!

As Dave has written, the colour scheme and markings are very good indeed. Super rigging too.

Excellent work Rip on a well known and striking scheme. Your build does Von Schleich's famous mount justice!

Cheers,
