Lovely model. I like this  scheme better than most SSW colors.
I have this kit in the que. How much did you sand sown the rather pronounced rib tape detail?

There is something fundamentally amiss with a society which forces it's modelers to work for a living.

    Very nicely done Pedja! One of my favorite WW.I Aircraft and a great choice of color scheme. The lozenge looks really good, is it from the Kit or After Market?
Cheers,

Nice model from a nice kit! Good job all around. The red paint looks great!
I like to think back to the time of building this model. It was a pleasant experience.

The lozenge of this newer release (same kit number, but new content) looks ok, even it can't reach the Aviattic ones. Since the Aviattic ones allows two models I ordered another kit to build a second one one day.

The only thing I would like to point out are the somewhat too dark pictures. You don't need to hide your model ;D

Cheers,
Frank

Thank you all for kind words. It means a lot to me.

I sand it but not to "zero" . Eduard liozenge decals, aside color, are good and flexible, for softener i use revell decal soft in enormous amount.

@Bughunter, you are right, pictures are a bit darker, first time using white background.

I've always thought the SSW looked like a little jewel.  Yours in no exception!  Just lovely...Dan

I am not very familiar with this type but looking at your model I may have to become so in future! That really is a stunner.
