I am really looking forward to this one T. I was "Virtually" gifted one of these from Mark Krummery ( probably screwed up the spelling) and will be watching closely what you do with this one

Thanks Rick , looking forward to having you follow along in the adventure

Made start on freeing up some of the parts , mainly the engine and few other parts for clean up . I also made a new firewall with the correct cut outs . This fits perfectly with in the inner ring on Rodens part . The Brengun PE set I back the rear bulk head with .10 thou card to give more strength .

A Siemens-Schuckert D.III is a nice little bullet, your selected livery is nice!
One day I will also build the second 1/48 one in my stash, to use the second half of the Aviattic decals

Happy modeling,
Frank

Looking good Terri,

I now have a Roden 1/32 Albatros I in the pile - having not made Roden before I’ll be interested in seeing how this pans out.

You whet our appetites and then take a week off?

Alexis · « **Reply #11 on:** October 01, 2019, 12:38:12 AM »

Thanks gentlemen for tagging along .

Frank , I still have an older Eduard kit and new release , one flashbacks and another Roden one as well as another Koster kit

Guy , Roden kits are nice kits . I have build many of their 48 scale offerings . Detail can be soft in some areas and small fit issues , but they are great kits !

Ken , a week off = lots of bench time

That looks an interesting subject Terri. That is not a subject that I have ever tackled but I understand that they were quite lively machines to fly. Will be watching this with much interest.

Enjoy your holiday break and keep us all posted on progress.

Stephen.
