Hello,
I thought I'd pick all the experts' brains on this one. I was just putting what I thought were the finishing touches to a Special Hobby 1:48 Albatros CIII when I realised there is supposed to be a fuel tank on the top wing. Bit cheeky to paint it on the box top and draw it on the painting instructions but not supply a part!

Can anyone tell me exactly what this thing looked like? A photo would be great but a description would do. I'm planning to adapt a bomb from Roden's DH4 but from what I've seen from Google it looks like the tank wasn't of circular cross-section along its full length but ended in a vertical knife edge.

While I'm at it, I presume the tyres aren't supposed to be as abnormally wide as the kit parts suggest but were the usual WW1 tyres of circular cross-section? Planning to replace those know I've stuck the two halves together with cyano and can't prize them apart again...

I promise to post some photos once I'm done, thanks in advance!
David
