Title: Polish Oeffag Albatros D.III
Post by: Rob Hart on March 13, 2020, 08:17:52 AM

1/48 Eduard kit. Added Quickboost seat and exhaust. Used Bob's Buckles rigging system. Sprayed national insignia and numerals. (Too large and incorrectly located) squadron insignia from Mike Grant decals. Thanks for joining me to indulge in a shared passion.

That is a Beautiful Albatros! Love the markings and the rigging looks excellent! That being said I don't think it belongs in the Off Topic section.  ;D

Very well done. Lovely work all around and i completely agree with rick: that’s straight to the point here, not off topic!
Best regards

First class model. It looks good in Polish markings.

Hi Rob!
Great building!
I have a question: what green you used for upper/side surfaces?
I have this one in my "one day" projects (toghether with a Balilla) so every suggestion is welcomed!
Many compliments!
Roberto

Roberto,

Thank-you. I used Tamiya XF81 Dark Green 2 (RAF) for the upper and side surfaces color.

Thank you,
I made some researches but there is no an "FS number" or something like this for the Polish Green.
Judging from photos, I think that you choose a good one!
