Title: Fritz Rumey 1/72 Albatros DV
Post by: Glenn Boss on September 26, 2022, 03:21:23 PM: Hey everyone,

First attempt at posting links to photos. Couldn't figure out how to attach photos directly - reducing the photos to less than the 128kB file limit rendered them useless. I'm learning how Photobucket works as well (I'm used to Instagram). Anyway, if you can see these images, they are of an Eduard 1/72 Albatros DV with Fritz Rumey's markings. Let me know if the links work. Thanks.

As for the photos, if you have them already in Photobucket, you could post the direct links here. Copy the direct link to the photo that Photobucket provides - for each photo. Then insert it between the commands "img" and "/img" - but instead of parentheses " " use brackets [ ]. This will cause the photos to be displayed here as they are in PB.
(The proper syntax cannot be shown here because the forum automatically expects the link if I use brackets :)

I highlighted your images (one at a time), and pressed the far left icon on the second row - Insert Image.

Beautiful model!

Thank you for the complements, and thanks to Gene K and Przemol for actually posting my photos and explaining the process. I'll work on getting some more photos into Photobucket so they can be posted. Some work in progress photos will follow soon as well.

Post by: RichieW on November 04, 2022, 08:25:01 AM: Superbly finished! Getting the black 'Cork screw' stripes so perfect must have taken a great deal of time, skill and patience.

Post by: rcboaterbill on December 27, 2022, 02:26:56 PM: Please, how did you get those fuselage stripes to look so good?

I’d love to add that scheme to my collection, but those stripes are rather intimidating…!
