1/20 Balsa Albatros D.Va
« on: July 08, 2026, 04:35:30 PM »




This is a 1/20 scale balsa (static) Albatros D.Va built using Dudley / Golden Age Reproductions plans as a basis. A video build log for this model can be seen at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ACAPr23xghg&list=PLpiczK9ZTJMtLFb9oGU6BDXcdbIXIXa3f&index=25&pp=iAQB

Another very impressive build. I'm impressed by your ability to print the lozenge on to tissue. The end result looks great.
