Some paint slopped on. Once given the wood treatment with oils, interior should look OK I think. (I don't know where the vent for the stove is going to exit the building yet, so I just stubbed up a short piece for now.)

Your hangar and accessories are looking really good Kevin, this will look great when all together.

Thanks, fellas, I'm having lots of fun with this effort.

Great work! Very clean and precise building on the hangar and the accessories.
I've also planned a Jasta 18 Albatros D-V for the coming months, starting from the same box which is the best one at 1/72 scale in my opinion. I just love the look of these red and white Albies...

I agree, the markings are quite attractive, and I'll undoubtedly be doing more; at least two D.VII's and one Dr.I

Jasta 18 also flew some of the most beautiful Pfalz D-III's, one of the best known being Hans Müller's machine.

I'm not familiar with that one, I'll have to look it up. I decided to go ahead and bite the bullet, so to speak, so I've now ordered the Pheon 72016 sheet, "Raben's Ravens". Now I just need to order some Aviattic lozenge sheets. There doesn't seem to be a lot of AM for these tiny machines, and perhaps that's a good thing.

As for the aftermarket, in my opinion the Roden D-V/Va requires a sheet of PE seatbelts, and a pair of decent Spandaus.

OK,admittedly this photo doesn't look it, but the overall effect of the oils added is OK with me, creating an interesting wood "feel", that looks much better in person than it does in this photo.

Looking good Kevin!
