My pleasure to present you my vision of Albatros B.II flown by members of civilian Polish Aviators' Union (Związek Lotników Polskich) from Poznań-Ławica airfield in 1925.
Wingnut Wings model was converted to late configuration using the well recommendable set prepared by Melius Manu including resin bits for stick controls, upper wing radiator, exhaust manifold, tail skid, broad struts and the icing on the cake - top class decals. Besides it I used Taurus Models resin bits for Mercedes D.II engine (timing gear, spark plugs, priming cups), Scale Spokes spoked wheels and the propeller is from custom cut veneer layers coming from a fellow modeller.
Let me thank Szymon and Kajetan from Melius Manu, Bogdan from Mr.Decal, Artur for the presented propeller -without you this model would have never been built!

My Amigo beat me to it again! His words express my thoughts exactly. I think this may be the purest representation of a WWI vintage aircraft I've ever seen. I love it! I could stare at these images for hours, but I've got to get back to work on my Nieuports.
Cheers,
Bud

Prez I ran out of superlatives for your models a very long time ago. This is just another example of your extraordinary skill in building/converting a kit and turning it into something completely different. As usual I raise my hat to a master modeller.

Beautiful, clean and interesting as always when you create a model!
Bye,Manni

Wonderful Build, another jewel all around!

Thanks for sharing.

Przemek your model looks great as usual.

Congratulations.

Xan

Thank you, Xan.
However, I did not quite get, what you meant by "factory"? Fabric? If so, I used Pactra A123 Mid Stone and shaded it with Vallejo Beige Brown dilluted strongly in clear lacquer.

Stunning build.

It's gorgeous theme you've chosen. And of course very, very impressive work. Congratulations.

Excellent model, Przemol. Looks like you could just climb in it and take off!

I am in awe at this model, it's just world class brilliance! The delicacy of the finish is a lesson to us all and as others have said, it can be summarised in a single word - perfection! Aircraft modelling at its finest!
