Alb 5a 6796/17 - OAW// WNW//1:32
« on: January 04, 2021, 07:35:58 PM »
Hi

I always wanted this lady to be done! Albatros D.Va 6796/17 no. 6 of Polish Air Forces. She was crashed at Hureczko airfield near by Przemyśl  This unfortunate event took place on March 20th 1919.
















regards
K

What a beauty! Seeing these photos make me smile! Very fine, that you showed this build here, too. Saw it elsewhere and was wandering if it was WNW of your usual 48th scale.
One question - the spoked wheels are Part PE?

Thanks Przemek,
Spoked wheels are the Gaspatch product. Resin. Could not find better alternative for those ones before I manage my own

That is a really lovely build, K! Stunning colours and a pleasure to view! I love the spoked wheels... Marc.

Beautifully done K. and the detail is wonderful. The wood grain is very nice and the subject is unusual enough to really catch the eye. You should be very proud of this one, a beautiful model!
Cheers,
Lance

Wish I could see it; pics aren't showing up for me, for some reason.
Cheers,
Dave.

Chrome browser does not show any images but if you use Microsoft Edge the photos will as if by magic be displayed.

There are pictures posted from other members that I also have to view with Edge but I have never been able to figure out why this different behaviour between the two browsers.

It is a bit of nuisance ;(
