The PE framework looks very good, and, as usual, nice clean work on everything.

Fantastic. You won’t build larger scales any more after finishing this one…

That will not be the case, I have 18 kits in 32nd scale including 11 Wingnuts to build.  ;)
But I may still build 72nd scale occassionally.

And here, the fuselage is closed, tail and skid attached, seams are being treated.

Interesting, just the bare fuselage of an Albatros is a thing of beauty.

As is your workmanship. Really enjoying this thread, Przemo.

Prze: "magnificent" is the only word I can think of for that interior. I cannot believe it's only 1/72. Remarkable detail!!

Great progress - but I wish you could leave a panel or two off to see that beautiful interior better.

Rest assured, Sandy. The cockpit opening is quite large and the engine panels will be off, so a lot of engine compartment will be visible, too.

And while working on the tailplane/fuselage seams and waiting for the CA glue to set I have carved the Axial propeller. The thin veneers I used (the same as in my Fokker D.VII) do not have a uniform dark layer hue, just the dark borders with bright inside, so I used a brown pencil to fill the pattern. Obviously it will be covered with clear orange mist to get the final look.

Lovely work on the propeller. I must try my hand at that skill someday.

Prze!  That rig is brilliant!  However, I'm wondering if I can cut cardboard accurately enough to do this. (I need a 2 degree dihedral for my Flashback Sopwith 1 1/2 Strutters.
