Albatros D-III Oeffag x2
« on: October 30, 2022, 06:00:24 AM »
This is the Hit Kit 1/72 model enhanced with a lot of the extra parts from Roden kits.  Brumowski decals are Americal Gryphon, national markings are from Roden, individual markings from the Hit Kit sheet.

















Next up is an Encore 1/72 kit which includes nice photo etch and resin enhancements.














This is the comparison to the drawing in Harry Woodman’s book Austro Hungarian aces of WWI

Thanks for looking in!

Another great one Tim, or should I say two.
The first one has a wicked camo scheme. Looks a bit like the carpet on my house when I first moved in.

Nicely done!  The Austrian  Albatros is neat looking aircraft.

Two more superb models from your collection. I agree that the scheme on the first is really eye-catching.
