Very well done, Rick! I can't really explain why, but the scheme on this machine is really appealing. It just looks so nice!

It was a delight to follow this build (even if, I think, I came in late) and she looks so at home in your display I had to hunt to find her! Congratulations on a beautiful build, Rick!

Superb model Rick and another excellent build thread. You really turn them out quickly but always to the highest standards.

That case looks very crowded, but what a collection. It alone is almost larger in number than my entire (mainly True Scale) model collection!

She looks great, Rick.  I like how you weathered the seam on the bottom.  ;D
It's an appealing color scheme.

A Huge Thanks to all who have commented. I am glad many find the scheme attractive, I know I like it even if the Fuselage color is Highly Speculative! In answer to Rafael I would say that I stopped being as Meticulous as some when it comes to detailing. This makes for a nice looking collection with No Contest winners in sight! The "Crowded" case can hold one more Jasta 4 bird....I think. I am thinking an OAW Albatros DIII with a black tail, wound ribbon, white rudder, and black and white spinner would look nice. All I need to do is save up for the kit and PE  8)
Thanks again for the Kind Comments,
RAGIII

PS: I realized that the case actually contains 23 models as the Tiny 1/72nd Dr1 is in there somewhere  ::) The other case has 19 1/32nd Models so a Total of 41 1/32nd scale WW1 Models right now.

PPS: I would Still like to know which propeller is represented as I am almost certain I have the appropriate Logo on a WNW decal sheet???

Rick, hat is a nice Albatros! Those early schemes are also attractive.
At first glance, it is impossible to tell whether it is a Roden or WNW kit.

Cheers,
Frank

Thanks Stuart! Yes, the Roden kits can be made to look Great. As a Matter of Fact, before WNW everyone that built 1/32nd WW1 was praising their virtues!!

Apologies, Rick -

I nearly missed this after being away for a couple of weeks on holiday.

What a a wonderful result of your Roden DIII - markings I have not seen before so a bit different.   

Really excellent work

Regards
