Title: Eduard 1/48 Oeffag D.II "Anny"
Post by: coyotemagic on January 26, 2013, 07:45:31 AM

This one is dedicated in loving memory to my mom, Anne Eddins Pearson, known as Anny to all who loved her.
This was a conversion of the excellent Eduard Oeffag D.III kit to a D.II using the Eduard Albatros D.II wings, interplane struts and Pheon's outstanding decals.  Fairly easy conversion which can be found here:

Bud,
    Beautiful work and a wonderful tribute to your Mom. Like NinetythirdLiberator I really like the "group shot"; great contrast in finishes. Well done!

I like them all very much, the newest is my favorite; you really have sold the materials : canvas, wood and aluminum.

Thanks, guys!  I was reluctant to add the first one to the mix since, although the Blue Max kit is quite good, it was my second WWI model and I turned it into a complete CF.  Just don't have the heart to toss it.
Cheers,
Bud
