I was able to get in a nice long session at the bench this evening. Enough to wrap this one up. It’ll never make to the show tables, but still, I am not unhappy. The rigging was a particular PITA this time and of course of my own doing. I forgot to drill out some of the holes for the turnbuckles and a few of them kept popping of since I couldn't glue the “pin” down far enough. And when I used the hot match to tighten some of the slack in some of the line I melted them and had to redo them. Still a few that I need to tend to.

WNW 1/32 Albatros D.Va.

Still all in all a very decent build! Please Model On!

Another outstanding build, Marc. I always enjoy paging through your postings. They are indeed, educational.

Looks fantastic. Congrats on the DVa. The weathering really is impressive.

Don't forget here is the gallery to post finished builds.

Ben, Mobious... thanks so much guys.

Jack... DONE!

Hi Marc!
That´s a superb build and paint/weathering! Detailig is excellent and you´ve invested a lot of time and energy for an accurate display.
But you´d better had a look at the Decals before - it´s not "Gesammtgew:", correct spelling is "Gesamtgew.:"(with 1 m and 1 dot,it´s a short form) - and there is no "dot" after kg (same as m for meter or l for liter, it´s a symbol).
Well, it´s a German plane, so excuse my little critics...

Nevertheless thank´s for sharing this pretty bird and your nice log.

That is a stunning result you got there. I like the wood finish which looks very realistic to me and the overal paint and weathering is extremely well executed.
