Turkish Albatros D.Va

[Odysseus]

Finally! I have taken back my model after one year (Museum exhibition). Here are the pictures of my Albatros D.Va (1/32 WnW)

Beautiful Albie, Odysseus!  I can certainly see how
it found it's way to a museum display. The painting
of the wood sheathing is really well done. 
  The radiator is amazing! Could you explain the process
you used to fashion it?  Thanks for sharing your work.

Cheers,
Ernie

This is one of my favorite D.Vs.  Fantastic modeling!  The overall finish is superb.  Those are painted national markings, aren't they?  Great job on the double radiator, too. . Very well done!

Cheers,

Bob

Gorgeous Albatros! Your details look outstanding! Like Ernie said the wood grain effect is perfect for the scale! I also like the unusual Markings. Congrats on having your Lovely Model in the Museum!

   Incredibly clean and crisp detail, one of, if not "The" best Albatros Fighters we've seen here. Congratulations on a beautiful Build.
Cheers,

I agree with all that has been written. An unusual set of markings but the standard of the paintwork leaves me speechless…….as doe the rest of the build!

[Odysseus]

Thank you all for nice comments!

Yes Bob, this one used by German "Pasha" units in Palestine Front. At the end of the war transfered to Turkish Air Force.



Ernie, i used Press-n-peel Blue PCB transfer paper for etching. This technique is not allowed for high details but ok for radiators. More information: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8fBlYEKqsRo

Hello Rahmi

Isn't this just one of the reasons why I so love this forum: a top notch model and interesting and unusual markings. I feel that I learn so much from work like this.

Best wishes

A very nice Albatros, Rahmi. Crisp and clear. Congratulations!

Truly extraordinary work, Rahmi!  So glad to see this build completed.  She turned out to be a real show-stopper.
Cheers,

Very well done. I really like the double-radiator-setup - this is a thing not shown very often.

Congratulations!
