Beautifully done Profa, the overall finish on this model is superb, well done expecially being in 1:72 scale.

It is a very fine little Roland, Profa! That MAC kit is very nice, isn't it?

Thank you all
Yes, Prez, it's a beautiful little kit, and a joy to build - my build log in English is unfortunately lost somewhere on the internet, but could be found in Serbian (if it is of interest to someone) here:

I remember seeing the beginnings of this one on another forum, Zoran. I'm so glad to see her finished. What a stunning beauty she turned out to be. Congratulations, my friend.
Cheers,
Bud

a lovely little plane, the wood is just great. I was looking for that picture from the model show in Belgrade with the 1:72 and 1:32 side by side (still in progress) to show the difference in the size, but was not able to find.

I have only one picture of our models side-by-side, albeit very blurred, and I hoped that you have it
I'll check with fellow Serbian and Slovenian modellers, since I'm sure somebody took few photos, but don't remember who

Totally agree with the others - a wonderful model the more so as it is in God's Own Scale. The wood finish is something that I would like to be able to do - very realistic and very impressive.

Beautiful Albatros, Profa, especially in the teeny scale. The wooden
fuselage looks great. Well done!
