Hi from Germany
« on: September 15, 2013, 05:37:13 AM »
Hi to all of you,
my name is Robert (ro) and I'm from Berlin, Germany. I'm modelling for quite a few years now, mainly armor from WWII. The last two years I also started with airplanes (WWII and modern). This was a nice experience as I found it completely different from armor stuff. I was always fascinated by the old bi-planes with wood and rigging. Two weeks ago I got an Albatros D. III (1/48,Eduard,Weekend Edition) from LHS and thought I should try this one for beginning. So that's why I'm glad to join this site to learn a lot of new things. The Albatros is still in progress.

Hi there,
thanks a lot for your friendly words. Yes I will share some WIP pics of the Albatros, although I'm a little afraid, the quality of the builds here is amazing.
