Eduard 1/48 Albatros D.V Udet
« on: January 02, 2015, 06:36:30 AM »
The first of my tri-build of Udet's Albatros D.Vs.  Eduard's 1/48 kit with lengthened landing gear, Barracuda wheels, and lots of scratch bits. Overall finish is Vallejo Aluminum.

That is a gorgeous looking Albatros Drew, the scheme you used is superb and the finish on this model, including the rigging, is excellent.

Absolutely Beautiful rendition of Udets Silbergrau bird! As Des said the whole finish is great including the superb rigging!

I tolld you in the other How I like this model, congratulation!
Perhaps an historical contextualization of the pilot and the plane ?

I agree with what others have already said - great work, well done.

Your added streamers are a very nice touch.
