Recently completed the Halberstadt Cl.II using the wonderful cookie cutter decals from Aviattic.














Thanks for looking in, my friends!
Cheers,
Bud

Beautyful Halbie, Bud. There is nothing to improve on your build. I love this scheme, it looks a bit like an Old School Hod Rod.
Bye, Manni

This is a great Halberstadt - Congratulations, Bud!
This bird is planned by me also, but in 1/48. I found it funny, that the used the bright underside lozenge on top of the wings :D So it's a nice contrast to all the normal lozenge colored biplanes.


Cheers,
Frank

All of your builds are inspiring Bud: this one is no exception and as Manni has commented, this looks more like a hot rod than an aeroplane! The markings are very striking and turn this into something completley different.
