« on: November 25, 2012, 09:11:19 AM »
Hello friends, I will show here the photos of a model that is being prepared by my friend Affonso Giordano using my last decal release, FCM 32016 with Lt. Wolf's Albatros D.V of Jasta 5  ;):

First parts:


Other details:



Cockpit and engine ready:


Masking the tail using the self adhesive masks:



Finished tais colors:



Wings:




Fuselage almost finished (this blue lozenge decals is somewhat difficult to apply, but not impossible  ;D):





For this moment this is all.  As soon the model comes ready I will add the photos here. 8)

I appreciate the compliments, but that assembly work is not mine. Who is preparing this model is my friend Afonso Giordano, I just did the application of the fuselage decals, because he was afraid to do this job  ;D... This model have been a four hands job. ;)

Now, that is a truly interesting way to build a kit!  Beautiful work by all who had a hand in it, pun intended.

Magnificent! Please keep the updates coming. I find it interesting that "4 Hands" got involved. I just did some wood finish antennae for my Nephew's P-51 as he had reservations about replicating wood. I felt rather honored as he is a better Modeller then I and has had his Builds published on HyperScale. That being said, you did a magnificent job on your addition, the decals are most impressive. Beautiful Model even before completion!
Cheers,
Lance :)

Shaping up beautifully - some excellent work on show here.  Love the choice of markings/colour scheme bye the way.

Mr. Giordano has certainly done a wonderful job on this project. This has to be one of the most colorful schemes for a DV, and he's done it justice and more! My congratulations as well, "pretty to watch"!
Cheers,
