Finished WnW Albatros D V.a
« on: February 25, 2016, 03:31:08 AM »
Hi Guys,

in the last days i have finished the Albatros D V.a.
My first Biplane, my first WnW and my first scale Model since a log time ago.
it was a building with many faults, but it was a lot of fun.
And it has a lot of experience brought to the next model.
The Hannover cl II. Certainly not as detail-like Bertl (Umlaufmotor) and not so perfect. But again built with love, passion and a lot of joy.
But, here are a few photos from my diorama.

Thank you for your support and your nice encouragement.

Kindly regards

Jörg

 Jorg,
Absolutely stunning project my friend. It's hard to believe the Albie is your first biplane. Well Done and congratulations.

   Really beautiful model Jorg. You've done a great job on it, and for your first Biplane and first model after such a long lay off it's even better! I really like your base as well, very nice match to the subject.
Cheers,
Lance

Congratulations Jörg on your first biplane model, it is a superb looking model with a very stunning scheme, the scene also compliments the model, well done.

Lance put in words exactly what I was thinking, Jorg.  Wonderful job, my friend.

A very beautiful build. I would never guess this is your first bi-plane. Look forward to seeing more from you.

Congrats on a BEAUTIFUL Albatros Jorg! Your figures and base are excellent. I have the figures in my stash and recently pulled them out to look at. Your vignette has convinced me to move them up a notch in the to do list!

She's truly gorgeous, Jorg, and I'm quite envious of your figure painting skills!  Stunning model, beautifully displayed!  Bravo!

Very very nice. And most of all: you had fun. Hopefully for another WNW kit to follow.
