Post by: Syd Solo on April 15, 2017, 01:32:18 PM: Obviously a lot of thought has gone into the weathering and wear and tear of these two. Nice models.

Cheers

Post by: DeLano80 on April 25, 2017, 05:32:27 AM: Wonderful work! But I have to ask.. Doesn't Stropp have lozenge camo?
Title: Re: Pair of WNW Albatrosen, DV and DVa
Post by: drdave on April 25, 2017, 07:58:04 AM: Either. Depending on the day of the week.

Okay... I don't get it. ??? Don't get me wrong, I love the look you have. It looks great! Is there some debate if the wings that cam with Stropp were original to this particular aircraft? And if this is a dumb question, please let me know!
Title: Re: Pair of WNW Albatrosen, DV and DVa
Post by: drdave on April 25, 2017, 04:59:34 PM: Sorry yes. There are WNW schemes for it with lozenge and without, so I went for the one in the box?
Title: Re: Pair of WNW Albatrosen, DV and DVa
Post by: DeLano80 on April 26, 2017, 01:20:14 AM: Got it. Thanks guys! I still have not seen a WNW kit in person so I had no idea there was an option. The only reference I have seen for that was the restoration book by nasm. Great work! Now back to my corner...
