Oeffag D.III Albatros

  • move
The Roden kit’s quality is only average, a lot of work needed.

I used Part Albatros D.III etched details, as well as many scratchbuilt parts. I had to rescribe the whole surface, because the panel lines are different from the German built version. I also made rivet lines, with a SBS/Z63 Riveter tool.

Kit is painted with Gunze, and Misterkit colours. The wood pattern is painted with oil paints using a sponge.

Absouletly beautiful One of my favourite planes of the great war, and very very well done in 1:72. If you'd said it was 1:32 I would have belived it!!! Impressed Regards Mikael

Wonderful,a three dimensional illusion,you have cracked it! My intuition suggests that you are a painter?

Peter, Great work. Did you use thinned acrylics, oils, or pastels to achieve the soiled and weathered clear doped linen? Please describe your technique. Thank you.

The struct use masking tape. I use strong thinned gunze hobby color. The color is my dust colors. Ligth-yellow, and yellow-grayish. All painting make with free-hand, with airbrush. I not use special technique. (Sorry, my english not good.)
