Title: ALBATROS D.V - EDUARD 1/72
Post by: Giordano on June 15, 2012, 10:07:36 PM

Hello friends, this is the Albatros DVa from Eduard in 1/72 scale.
Out of the box, automotive painting, wethering done with
oil paints to canvas diluted with turpentine.
Fuselage decal made ​​in inkjet printer.
Rigging made ​​with surgical thread 6.0.
The engine is very poorly done.
This is probably my last job in 1/72 scale ...  :-\
From now on, only the Wingnut Wings 1/32 scale...  ;D ;D ;D
Hope you enjoy.
And thank you in advance your comments.

Incredible, Afonso!  The masking is sharp and crisp.  Something that is extremely difficult in 1/48 scale and next to impossible in 1/72 scale.  Fantastic work all around.
Cheers,
Bud

Wonderful model. (http://i1168.photobucket.com/albums/r486/Ken_Jeffrey/smileys/clap.gif)

My constant fails with 1/72 Albatros is what made me step up to 1/48. (Thrown 3 away now, just started a 1/48 Revell boxing of the Eduard D.V   If it comes out half as good as your 1/72 I'll be a happy bunny.)
