Wow!
What an eye for details! Absolutely terrific work.
I like your attention for details! Great job adding all nuts on the tank surface and the engine upgrades are incredible!

Thanks to everyone! Here are some new progress photos.

The fuselage closed. I will add some details and fix errors after oil paint work completed.







See you next update  :)

Your cockpit padding looks excellent! The fit of the coaming to fuselage requires work but is not as bad with the forward cowls removed as you have done! Looking forward to more!!!

Nice work! The long cocking levers though aren't appropriate for this machine -- they appeared much later. In fact many of the early Albatros D.Is and D.IIs carried MG08s (not LMG08/15s) so be sure to check your references if this kind of thing is important to you.

Cheers!

Thank you all!

Thanks for the tip Bo, i will check and fix it.

The cockpit padding is that aluminum foil ? Curious how you did it. Thank you for any information.

Thank you Ernie!

Derrick, i used self adhesive aluminum foil for that. Bought from local hardware dealer not model shops, this is cheap one.
