Title: albatros DV 1:48
Post by: mario1 on January 16, 2014, 03:10:50 AM

Hi Guys,
here my last project,Albatros Dv, I tested the wood decals instead of working with oils.
Pretty much out of the box except for some details scratchbuilt or aftermarket
ciao Mario

Beautiful job, Mario!  I'd also like to know what colour to create the
fuselage woodwork.  Great Albatros!

Cheers,
Ernie :)

Indeed, your Albie is looking great. Fine modelling all around.

As for the photos, I suggest you to register at a photo-hosting server (like Photobucket). There you can store your photos and here you provide just links to them. Alternatively you may surely store the photos here.
Usually the right dimension for a website presentation is 700 to 800 pixels horizontal.

Truly gorgeous Albatros, Mario!  Your wood grain is fantastic.  Whose decals did you use?  The shading on the wings is very nice, as well.  An outstanding model overall.
Cheers,
Bud

Outstanding build Mario. The wood painting it's very convencing and the overall look it's fantastic.

Very fine modeling indeed, congrats.
