Title: Another D VII
Post by: nmroberto on July 27, 2014, 07:09:36 AM: This is a Eduard 1/48 D VII OAW flown by Rudolph Stark. Too bad I finished it before I knew about the group build.

I love this particular kit because when I ordered it came in missing some of the decals. I contacted the seller who refunded the full price and told me to keep it because they didn't want to mess with the return shipping and they couldn't sell it without the decals. ;D

Yep, you are correct, I apparently had a senior moment when I posted the description.
